Matured in a 1st fill Oloroso hogshead, cask #TWB1008 284 bottles.
Appearance – This Whisky is light to mid gold in colour, very viscous on the glass, and has thick legs.
Nose – Lemon and pineapple, pears, cereals again, flapjack, strawberries coming too. there’s icing sugar, tinned fruit cocktail, mustiness, it’s a good ABV, with savoury meat too. How about Apple strudel and vanilla custard.
Yes please!#BlindDrams

Palate – it’s oily, salty, hazel nuts, ginger, cinnamon, honey, white pepper, cardamom, black liquorice, chilli, lemonade and royal icing, a very nice palate indeed.
Finish – It’s medium in length, and spicy, with black peppercorns, chilli, high cocoa dark chocolate, cinnamon, black cherries, warming my cheeks nicely. I rather like it.
My thoughts – I like this one a lot, another one with so much going on, a lovely surprise in a blind tasting.
Would i buy a bottle? – It’s a definite yes from me, i’d enjoy a drop of this any time.
Notes – This whisky is presented as its natural colour, it’s non chill filtered, and bottled at cask strength.
