This single cask bottle carries an early eclectic mix of fudge, grist and lemon with wooden fruit boxes on the nose, plus a late and very gently smoked tobacco backdrop. Silky on the palate, and initially muted before some warningly interesting spices appear amongst the subtle oak and dry earthy tones, alive with brown sugar, barley and roasted coffee. All that character shows through in the rich amalgam of its finish.
