Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes by Rocky
- Nose
  Rich in profile, yet elegant in intensity, with chocolate, Turkish delight, along with fresher fruit than expected from a long aged sherry cask whisky, with orange and lemon notes.
- Palate
  Stunningly elegant in nature with a classic sherried flavour profile of dark chocolate, fruit cake and orange, along with a hint of ash and tar from the wood, but it’s certainly not overly oaky.
- Finish
  Long, with and chocolate orange and some oak spiciness.
- Comment
  The transfer to a hogshead from a (presumably over-active) butt has created an elegant style rather than a sherry monster. Elegant whiskies of this age and complexity are rare and a delight.
Tasting Notes by Jonny McCormick
- Nose
  Hints of fruitcake, dark chocolate, candied peel, and light, subtle oak characteristics.
- Palate
  There’s a ripe, rich fruity character of an older orange that has matured from its zesty vitality, together with rum and raisin chocolate.
- With water
  Chocolate orange soothes the palate, eclipsing the fruitier notes at cask strength.
- Comment
  This whisky is one for the sophisticated palate, those aficionados who can detect the nuances of flavour, and appreciate the refinement. After more than 60 years of quiet maturation in the warehouse, it is hugely pleasurable and delectably satisfying in small quantities.
