Tasting Notes
Smooth. I'd buy this as a gift and just keep it.
Macadamia nut Dark chocolate Miles Davis
Round bold sherry but with a great satisfying middle. Exemplar of the style.
Nose of hi-chew, super buttery sweet on the palate.
Smooth and buttery. I can hear the Scottish wind.
Overripe fruit but withbstriking clarity. Surprisingly absent of sweetness, a little nutty.
Too chewy and tanic
Way too mild on the nose. Delicate but unrewarding. Totally pleasant, but not super exciting.
