Presenting at a natural strength of 45% ABV, this non-chill filtered single\/blended malt bypasses all artificial shortcuts, relying purely on two decades of interaction between fine Scottish malt spirit and active sherry wood. It opens up with an old-fashioned, deeply atmospheric array of dark fruits, antique library leather, and unctuous dark chocolate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e Intensely evocative, dark, and sophisticated.
