Notes

About Snug and Toasty: If you've never experienced a well-aged malt from distillery 35 this is QUITE the introduction! We love this whisky at any age with its fruity, grassy, touch-of-winey profile. Here we have a gorgeous dram 32 years in the making with 27 years in ex-bourbon and 5 years in 2nd fill PX sherry cask. The name says it all.... You'll be in an amazingly cozy place in no time!

Tasting Panel Note:The bountiful nose brimmed with sticky toffee pudding, forest fruits, red berries sautéed in old armagnac, black pepper and playful things including jammy dodgers, polished oak, vanilla shortbread and cassis. Water invited in aromas of apple blossom, fig rolls, golden raisins, granola and bitter cocoa, with some firmer hints of allspice and chai tea. The palate was initially dominated by resinous exotic hardwoods, sticky dark treacle, pears baked in hoisin sauce and fig chutney. This was proving decadent and outrageously quaffable, we agreed. Reduction brought lighter notes of elderflower wine, strawberry jam on brown toast and battenberg cake, plus raspberry ripple ice cream studded with dried banana chips. This whisky was matured for 27 years in a bourbon hogshead before being transferred to a second fill PX sherry hogshead.
