A 2001 vintage blended malt from independent Scotch whisky bottlers, Thompson Bros. Distilled in 2001 and matured for 20 years in sherry casks, as usual another superb label design for this latest release, 630 bottles filled at 45% vol. Nose: Well sherried with dense dried fruits and toasted nuts, sweet caramel, and malty biscuits. Palate: Baked apples, gently spiced with sweet oak leading to crunchy peanut brittle. Finish: Candied fruits, a hint of orange peel, prunes, and cakey spice.
