Taster

Nose: Hugely aromatic. Lemony, estery. Hint of smokiness. Malty.

Palate: Quite big. Firm. Appetising and full of flavours. Sweetish. Distinct anis. Liqueur-ish.

Finish: Cookie-like dryness.

Comment: This version is not obviously sherryish, but still manages very big flavours indeed. I'm very impressed.

Score: 8

Taster

Palate: Very soft and sweet. Straight down the middle.

Finish: Soft.

Comment: Very soft, direct. Good blending material, but as a single?

Score: 7.3
