Light and fruity on the nose with a little oak. Sweet citrus fruit and char on the pallet. The char is subtle. I love the sherry finished scotches so this is right up my alley. There’s a lot going on in this blend and that’s what makes it special. Can’t beat the price.

Kind of rolled the dice on this one, and the payoff way excellent. I'm a big fan of Speyside Whisky and sherry finishes so this was perfect.
Tried a dram in the Lufthansa Senator lounge. Nice and strong.
Not as complex as some but a little sweet a little brine
Cherry, vanilla, oak, good balance in a lighter drinker
Aggressive, strong, spicy, dried fruit
