Andrew's Tasting Note
Nose: Fruit Leather, dark milk chocolate, maple syrup and licorice Jujubes; candied nuts, Demerara sugars and Christmas Cake; classic old school sherry; soft leather and fruity Cuban cigar tobacco; maraschino cherries and jammy berry fruits.
Palate: soft and fruity with Caramilk chocolate, more maple syrup and assorted Jelly Bellies; more jammy berry fruits, dark spices: clove, cinnamon and nutmeg; fruity Cuban cigar tobacco and soft Italian leather gloves; building heat from the spices and more licorice Jujubes; antique-y with Christmas cake.
Finish: long, coating and spicy with more leather, tobacco and chocolate; antique-y with more Christmas cake.
Comment: this is a rich, complex, layered and old school sherried single malt, with a lot of spice; if it is indeed Glenmorangie, how cool is that… we almost never see IBs from that distillery; and either way, this is excellent stuff!
