Nose: Classic house style with glorious bourbon notes fused with the richest of barley statements; not entirely unlike caramelised biscuit dunked in coffee; oh, & a bit of spicy attitude, too. Taste: There we go with that unique bitter-sweet overture where the oaks & barley appear joined at the hip; lovely soft oils & then a sharp jolt of blood orange citrus, which is removed by something more buttery & delicate. Finish: Long, elegant with the most intricate of fades with the oaks showing various bourbon then buttery characteristics; there is a trace of dark sugar & cocoa to help it along its way.
