Nose

Outwardly flattish, but time and patience reveals life beyond the sherry-hints of cherry and oak.

Palate

Mouth-filling and chewy. Lots of cream toffee. All the time there's a delicate, malty spice buzz.

Finish

Very long and still milky, silky toffee with malt and vanilla arriving. A wave or two of sweet liquorice adds further richness.

Comment

Genuinely classy stuff from the 24 carat jewel in JBB's Scottish crown.
