Taster

Nose: Bourbon notes combined with more fragrant cedar wood. There are also hints of cloves and cinnamon.

Palate: Very fruity to begin with berry flavours,with echoes of port,then the sweet spice comes through. It's assertive but not aggressive.

Finish: Long and warming,with spice and zesty orange peel.

Comment: A wonderfully complex dram for contemplation.

Score: 8.5
