One of the most balanced finishes that we have ever made, in which all the components are perfectly integrated. This Speyside malt spent its final 30 months in first fill Pedro Ximenez butts, which enriched it with just the right amount of fruity richness: it still is a whisky that first and foremost tastes like whisky, not like sherry! At the nose it has a light touch of raisins, only slightly winey, with an aromatic and deep note of herbs and old books. At the palate it’s very velvety but full bodied. The balance between the honey and plums sweetness, the oak and the minerality is perfect: extremely cohesive. Chewy and rich, but also very smooth and fresh. It grows slightly more tannic and peppery only in the finale.
