Jim Murray
75- Nose
- Fiendishly spiced, exceedingly complex. Excellent Oloroso presence, much more intense than the standard 18 or 25 Years Old. Distinct orange peel; zesty.
- Palate
- A prickly malt, with the sherry taking the lazy route, allowing some lovely peaty notes through.
- Finish
- Dry, too dry. Some deep roasted Columbian coffee tries to rescue it, but a little disappointing.
- Comment
- The finish does have the same effortless charm as the ‘46 or the 25 Years Old. Sensational nose.
