Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes by Rocky
Nose
Typical of a sherry-matured whisky. Rich with notes of dark chocolate orange, sultanas and butterscotch. As with The Journey, the wood-smoking makes its presence felt.
Palate
Warmer and spicier than The Journey. Cinnamon spice intermingles with bitter orange and marzipan, along with some sweeter notes of toffee and a hint of tangy sherbet.
Finish
Medium to long, with the bitter orange the last to dissipate.
Comment
As a lover of sherry-cask whiskies, this is the one I’d drink most often. The classic character is present, but with added spice from the wood-smoked malt that you don’t find in Scotland.
Producer's Tasting Notes
Nose: The first nose starts extremely plentiful with a fine mix of raisins, tangerines, tea cakes, candied fruit and half-baked caramel cookie dough. Beneath the surface smoulder a fine addition to my spices caramel and toffee notes rich. Toward the end, scores of malt with a subtly restrained oak and minimal bitter orange notes. Taste: The taste starts off as complex as the nose. Notes of fruity-sweet raisin cake, vanilla and caramel form a well-composed overture. After that delicate notes of mandarin, spices and toffee cake, while the crowning glory by fine oak notes, light prune aromas and a hint of bitter oranges. The finish is medium long and lasts for several minutes.
