Notes

About Sweetie shoppe at the library: Full term maturation in sherry between refill Oloroso and 1st fill ex-bodega Oloroso! Round and rewarding for those who love a parade of sweets in the glass. Dried fruits, baking spices and desserts all take turns strutting their stuff in this stunner.

Tasting Panel Note: Opening a new library book we found a hidden compartment stuffed with cinder toffee, waxy honeycomb pieces, and fig rolls wrapped in paper decorated with calligraphy ink. The palate was well rounded, a smooth and sweet lavender, honey, nutmeg and raisin purée, with marmalade atop custard tarts. Water offered peach cobbler and Dundee cake on the nose, while the palate gifted sultanas, lavender popcorn and cask char. After six years in a refill oloroso butt, we transferred this to a first fill ex-bodega oloroso butt for the remainder of its maturation.
