Nose

Incredibly aromatic, thanks partly to a subtle peatiness. The sherry notes are concentrated and there is massive fruit ranging from mango to apples. Enormous.

Palate

The sherry tries to dominate but fails. Peppery spices, lightly smoked malt, clean sherry mingling with paw-paw and a vague nuttiness.

Finish

Long, clean sherry, hints of citrus fruit and cocoa. The peppers linger.

Comment

Surprising complexity; very, very good.
