The nose is strong of sherry and raisins, as well as hints of peat and straw. The taste of raisins carry over strongly along with honey, peat and dried cherries. The finish is long and amazing with fading pepper, straw, peat, honey and raisins. The palo cortado finish makes an amazing difference.

Delicious with lots of caramel straight from the cask. Really getting me into bourbon and Sherry finishes now
