  • Earthy aromas suggest dried apricot, hay and sandalwood. The light but drying palate echoes that sandalwood note, leading into dried fruit and finishing with mild hints of smoke, violet and cinnamon.

  • Medium-bodied, with caramel, dark chocolate-cherry liqueur, and warming spices. The finish yields black currant, cough medicine, then allspice, and slowly drying oak.

  • The typical orange peel notes of a sherry-finished whisky aren’t immediately evident here, but some of that sweetness (a cinnamon sugar note) comes forward as you tuck into the palate, revealing not just some citrus but a body that is heavy with nuts, marzipan, and coffee cake.
