  • 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.

  • It's a big Scotch, not at all overwhelmed by the oloroso sherry cask, and quite a good buy at the price.

  • Unfortunately too hot for its own good – shrouding many better flavors.

  • 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.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Honey, amaretto, red vines, fresh baked bread. Light brine. Super sweet toffee and vanilla bean. Amaretto note is really prominent.

  • Taste:

    Thick rich mouthfeel. Very prominent heat. Sweet vanilla, light baked bread. Almonds and walnuts. Sweet red fruits like raspberry and blackberry. Light pipe tobacco. Lightly lactic.

  • Finish:

    Long but hot. searing heat. Mild sulfur, light pepper. Again - lots of vanilla bean, fresh baked rolls and toffee and amaretto.

  • Overall:

    Unfortunately too hot for its own good - shrouding many better flavors. 

  • Score:
