Comments: 

Cask 3058. Ah, the power of sherry, allied to unpeated Islay spirit. This one has heaps of jammy tropical fruits, alongside sharp acetone pear drops. There's plenty of alcohol prickle on the nose and even more on the tongue, but it's easy to drink. Big, powerful, complex and robust.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
