TANTALIZING TANNINS

This 11 year old Speysider came from a refill barrel and is 57.3%

Flavour profile:  Juicy, oak & vanilla

Outturn:  235 bottles

Panel's tasting note:  "We uncovered brand new chamois leather, opened a jar of set honey and released the tempting aromas from opening a tin of Shanghai rose tea leaves or lifting the lid off an assorted chocolate praline box. On the taste it turned into a well brewed Rooibos Chai tea with spicy cinnamon, cardamom husk, ginger and lemongrass with a good balance of soft tannins as one often finds in a ‘Super Tuscan’. Diluted, fresh lemon juice and orange barley water was released alongside antique leather bound books. On the palate, now like a Caribbean fruit punch, juicy and very tasty."

Drinking tip:  "Whilst engrossed in a novel"
