Nose

Fat and unctuous with some resinous notes moving into Worcester sauce. Light smoke, Iced Gems, cedar, fig, stewed tea, caramelised fruits.

Palate

Very slow and soft showing real maturity. Fungal. Structure and grip. Good age, with a nutty oaky start which grows and opens beautifully.

Finish

Fades into chocolate, dust and velvet.

Comment

An excellent mature spirit.
