Slight nip of alcohol, then dark fruits – prunes and dates. Very savory – curry spice mixtures, with powdered ginger, cardamom, and coriander. In that it is rather close to some Solist single casks I’ve had. Herbal-spicy with huge dose of oak. Imagine an old attic that constantly is sun-lit. Quite dusty, saw dust in the air from somebody who was doing repairs in it recently. Always revolving back to the oriental curry-ness and even some liquefied licorice.
Taste
Juicy oranges, immediately drying with oak spice and nutty flavors. Caramelized sugar, herbal tea – mint and aniseed. Minor maltiness paired with perfumy lavender.
Finish
Medium. Brandy-infused raisins, sweet tannins, and fig chutney.
