Tasting Notes by Malt And Oak
Appearance: Medium Amber. Long thin, oily legs.
Nose: Dry Oloroso sherry, balsamic vinegar, honey, pears and warm fruit. Then a slight sour tartness appears followed by some milky coffee. The spirit is quite active here.
Palate: Sweet, with that milky coffee element appearing. There’s a clear liquorice bitter-sweetness, coupled with a woody bite. Sherry sweetness is a constantly there holding everything together. The liquorice re-appears.
Finish: Long. Liquorice bitter-sweetness stays on the tongue and at the back of the mouth for a long time.
Water adds: Sour fruit and polish on the nose, with more pepper on the palate. The liquorice bite is increased on the finish.
Conclusion: Very enjoyable with a lovely flavour that flits between gentle sweetness and bitterness. If you want a less explosive sherry bomb, this is most definitely a keeper. It makes a really nice partner to some of the more heavier whiskies.
