2019, SMWS
Single malt - Speyside
Amber bronze
65% ABV
Dram
Nose: Raisins, almonds, walnut skins, cinnamon, cloves, apple juice, dates, toffee. With water, raisins, white pepper, aluminium foil.
Mouthfeel: Heavy body, hot, tingly, astringent.
Tasting: Bitter sweet. Cream, raisins, walnut skins, cedar, toffee, white pepper, dates, cocoa nibs. With water, raisins, cream, brown paper, honey.
Finish: Long. Cream, cocoa nibs, cloves, raisins, dates.
Comments:
Sherried Speyside, very classic, very high in ABV. Lots of bitter notes offset the sweet, and there’s a good sherried nuttiness that pervades the whole dram. Stands out among a crowded pack.
Verdict:
I like this a lot.
