Notes
About Perfect armchair dram:
Tasting Panel Note: The nose was a party mix of chocolate raisins, chocolate peanuts, foam shrimps and liquorice comfits, treacle tart, pecan pie and chargrilled pineapple. The impactful palate combined blackcurrant jelly and rhubarb pie with dark chocolate, grated coconut and spun sugar; then iced gingerbread, black pepper, aniseed, clove and wine-stained oak produced a wave of spice. The reduced nose mingled the sweet and citric notes of chocolate limes, lemon cheesecake and orange liqueur. The palate, with chocolate brownies, espresso, rose Turkish delight and a dry, nutty, wine-leather finish, seemed the perfect armchair dram. After 12 years in ex-bourbon wood, we transferred this whisky to a first fill American oak barrique with new toasted heads.
