Comments: 

Sherry matured Littlemill (apparently a refill hogshead, but there must have been a lot left). It's chockfull of the usual red grapes and tobacco leaf, but there's an airy honeyed quality, and the oak is very apparent. Good stuff, really appley on the tongue. My first Littlemill in a while, I didn't think I'd be drinking any more, to be honest.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
