Very good review score, 89 out of 100
A rich, oily whisky with walnut, burnt raisins, prunes and chocolate, finishing long, bitter, dry and very oloroso with a salty aftertaste.

This is a 25-year-old blended malt whisky, bottled from a single cask at cask strength. That means it was not reduced to a lower bottling strength, so it is likely to show a fuller texture and more concentrated flavour than many standard releases.
A rich, oily whisky with walnut, burnt raisins, prunes and chocolate, finishing long, bitter, dry and very oloroso with a salty aftertaste.
A really good expression with juicy raisins, stewed plums, herbal honey and darkening milk chocolate, balanced by clean sherry and a long, peppery finish.
