π¨ Flavor Profile
π Tasting Notes
Rich oloroso sherry character dominates with pronounced dried fruitsβraisins, figs, and datesβlayered over toasted almonds and dark chocolate. Hints of orange peel, cinnamon, and polished oak add complexity.
Full-bodied and satisfyingly rich, delivering waves of sherry-soaked fruit, butterscotch, and walnut. Mid-palate spices of clove and black pepper emerge alongside dark toffee and a pleasant oakiness that provides structure.
Long and warming with persistent sherry sweetness, dark chocolate, and lingering baking spices that coat the palate.
π₯ How to Enjoy
Pour at room temp in a Glencairn. Let it breathe 2β3 minutes before nosing β this unlocks the full aromatic profile.
A few drops cut through cask-strength alcohol and release esters. Start with one drop and taste as you go.
Fine for lighter, fruitier expressions. Cold can mute the complexity in heavily peated or well-aged malts.
