Nose
Very restrained, nutty, sherry, with sea air. Palate
Slightly sweeter, creamier, more rounded. Finish
Almost a shadow of the nose. Comment
Many blenders feel that second-fill sherry casks give a more balanced result than first-fill. This whisky is a lesson in that technique.
Jim Murray
Nose
Soft, strangely neutral aroma. Palate
Excellent sherry thrust perfectly countered by the peat. Massive depth. Finish
Medium length and Turkish delight sweet. Comment
Superb harmony in spite of the youth. Much, much better.
