Bottled February 2024
Cask #807405, Ruby Port Finish
One of 305 bottles.
Tasting notes:
Colour Bright auburn.
Nose: Sweet tobacco and soft peat, with a burst of cracked black pepper and stem ginger. Damp asphalt. Captivating aroma; you could lose yourself in this.
Taste: Beautifully poised. The base whisky delivers lingering, soft, elegant phenols. These are overlaid with apricots, blood orange and peaches from the port cask, with a spicy flourish towards the end. Peated Islay and fortified wine casks - a winning combination.
