Tasting notes
The spirit is initially matured in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels, giving it a base of soft vanilla and honey notes. A proportion of the spirit is then transferred into the finest Sherry casks, some of which have previously held rare and aged Oloroso Sherry. These carefully curated casks enhance the whisky's rich character. Citrus fruits, chocolate, aromatic spices. Seville oranges, dried fruits, and hints of vanilla pods.
