A gorgeous dram for those looking for something rich & a little surprising. Whisky region: Highland Nose: Coffee beans, sponge cake drenched in sherry, mint leaf, slightly buttery, sultana. Palate: Rich, thick & packed with juicy-but-dried fruit – rum-soaked raisins, prunes & a touch of chopped date. Nutmeg & cinnamon sit underneath along with sticks of black liquorice. It's more savoury than the nose suggests, focusing on fruit cake & bitter dark chocolate. Finish: Damp leaves & a hint of mint. Raisins & dates linger.
