This is an independent bottling of spirit distilled at Aultmore and bottled by Chapter 7. It is bottled after finishing in a first fill oloroso cask, using no filtering, dilution or coloring.
The palate is a bit of a bruiser at over 62% abv, and the sherry and underlying grain notes remain in serious conflict on the tongue. It’s perhaps a touch nutty from time to time, but simply too undercooked to show much charm.
Full-bodied on the palate, with sweet sherry notes, ginger, and cinnamon, and developing raisin and prune notes. The finish is long, with spicy coffee and blackberries.
