Excellent,
Highly Recommended

Tasting Note:

Intricately knit nose of redcurrant, toffee, lanolin, cigar box, and seagrass. The palate is impeccably smooth, with wonderfully sherried notes of dried apricot, roasted Brazil nuts, red cherries, and blue cheese. Long and opulent notes of brown butter and cedar on the finish make for a truly exquisite dram.
