Nose
Huge, primal gobs of gritty and spicy Oloroso. Manure with chunky malt and subtle peat. Lightly smoked and meaty with late hints of crystallised orange and violet.
Palate
Gritty Oloroso, dried fruit and coffee. Tannic, but softened by the treacle. Subtly peated with prune and dried grape. The alcohol is well integrated and balances the sweetness. \n
Finish
Long and citric with the sooty peat pushing through the sherry. Lingering dried fruit, treacle and coffee. \n
Comment
Impressive sherry monster. Raw but well-balanced.
