Review and Tasting
Sampled on 09/07/2014
Appearance:
Clear, golden amber.
Aroma:
Buttery suede leather, sherry, nutmeg, ripe banana and toasted hazelnut with backed apple pie. Water releases balsawood and cedarwood.
Taste:
Full-bodied, sherry-rich and elegantly woody with earthy lightly smoky peat and chocolate. Water amplifies sherry and dry woodiness.
Aftertaste:
Long dry, gently peaty finish.
