About Bunyanesque bravado: A certain treat for lovers of this distillery, little introduction needs to be made. Arguably the most popular brand in the market right now, this cask offers a full-bodied expression for you to indulge in. Having spent 10 years in Oloroso sherry cask and 5 additional years in ex-bourbon, we’ve made sure the indulgence is a proper one!

Tasting Panel Note: The Panel felt this one was ... well, lardy! Its big, fatty, gooey and thick profile suggested loads of vanilla cream and custard, freshly churned butter, toffee, malty brown ales, waxes, biscuits and shoe leather. Water brought a more playful side with notes of citrus sherbets, flower pollens, toasted sunflower seeds and olive oil. The neat palate was strong and spicy at first, with lots of pumpernickel bread, rum 'n' raisin ice cream, clove oil, wintergreen and cold-brew coffee. Some reduction revealed notes of curd leaf, lime, malted milk biscuit, gingerbread and boiled lemon sweets. A big, hearty and syrupy dram, full of character. At 10 years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
