Review #337 |
This is the
new label and it is matured in three different casks. Bourbon, Oloroso and PX
sherry casks. Dark dried fruits on the nose. A bit sharp with alcohol if you
get to close, but after a minute it settles. Some dark chocolate and sugar cane
sweetness as well.
The fruits
is a bit more ripe in the taste, and the PX casks are very dominant. Just a
touch of tannins and gentle oak. Very nice finish, but unfortunately just
medium in length and it gets weak very fast. Probably due to the low ABV.
This offers
quite a bit of complexity, and is a good example of how PX casks can work! A couple
of years extra maturation and a bit higher ABV and it would be absolutely
delicious! I will give this 85/100 (21/21/21/22).
