The whisky is firstly matured for many years in traditional oak whisky casks. The secondary cask used for maturation is a European oak sherry cask, and it stays in here for a few months to add deep complexities to the whisky.

The whisky is deep gold in colour and has a reasonably high viscosity. The aroma is of spicy oak, raisins and hints of vanilla. It has a mellow, sweet finish.

On initial tasting the whisky was rather fruity, followed by a spiciness that tingled the taste buds. It's a complex whisky with a good oaky body that mellows in the mouth, to a lovely sweet honey and vanilla finish.
I haven't touched whisky since last winter, but i'm glad I reacquainted myself with this one. Beautiful.
