The Experience
Colour
Warm cherry.
Nose
Sumptuous Medjool dates, sweet baked figs and rich milk chocolate accompanied by delicate hints of honey and tropical character, reminiscent of dried mango and ripe papaya. Encapsulated by complex sweet oak.
Palate
A real sweetness is evident with sherry-seasoned dried fruits, orange marmalade and honeycomb. Soft spiced notes of ginger and cinnamon develop.
Finish
Bursts of caramelised pineapple and creamy vanilla linger with the exquisite balance of subtle dark chocolate and coffee.
ABV
43.6%
A SPIKY RED WORLD
“Inspired by past masters, we have explored the full extent of our warehouses to capture the complex influences of seasoning, oak origin, cask size and distillery character in one incredibly special bottle of whisky - with the European Oak character sitting at its heart. When you give whisky the time and space to evolve, develop and flourish in optimally selected casks, you allow it to achieve exceptional heights.”
