Distilled in 2000 and matured for a full 25 years, this whisky was drawn from a first fill sherry butt, delivering remarkable depth, richness, and complexity.

Tasting Notes

Nose:
Deep and rich with classic sherry influence—raisins, figs, and dates, followed by dark cherries, candied orange peel, and dark chocolate. Layers of walnut, leather, polished wood, and warming spices develop over time.

Palate:
Full-bodied and powerful, yet silky. Notes of dried fruit, orange marmalade, chocolate, and roasted nuts are complemented by toffee, espresso, and gentle spice, with a refined balance between sweetness and oak.

Finish:
Long and elegant, with lingering dark chocolate, citrus peel, nuts, and warming spices, evolving into a slightly dry, tannic and sophisticated conclusion.
