On the nose, this whisky has a deep and complex aroma with notes of dried fruit, caramel, and vanilla. The sherry cask aging process adds a nutty complexity to the nose, with hints of almonds and hazelnuts. On the palate, the whisky is full-bodied and rich, with a velvety texture that coats the mouth.
Flavors of dried fruit and caramel dominate the palate, with a subtle spiciness and hints of oak and vanilla adding complexity and depth. The sherry cask influence is evident throughout, with notes of raisins and figs present in the flavor profile. The finish is long and warming, with a gentle spiciness that lingers on the tongue.
