Tasting Note
Re-Tasted: Feb 2014
A superbly deep nose of edgy Oloroso coated sweet orange, barley and figgy dried fruit along with burnt wood, linseed oil and dusty/tarry peat. The salinity balances the rich sherry marvellously.
The palate is big and chewy, opening with oily barley and dusty peat before moving in a treacly, tarry, creosote and burnt wood direction. The dried sherry fruit is unveiled on the middle but coastal notes sweep it aside. Stunning, smoky finish with honey glazed, bbq pork, iodine and mint herb notes. We’re not finished yet though! The alcohol causes the mouth to water profusely and leaves a tarry, burnt wood, salty and violety coating. Wow. That’s how to do a finish!
Please note that the branded Glencairn glass is not included with this bottle. It however can be purchased separately for £8.95
