Tasting Notes from TWB.
Nose: Rich and complex, with notes of dried fruits such as raisins, dates, and figs. Aromas of oak, vanilla, and toffee mingle with hints of dark chocolate and espresso. There's a subtle smokiness reminiscent of a distant bonfire, with a touch of brine from coastal distilleries like Talisker and Scapa.
Palate: Luxuriously smooth and velvety on the palate, with a symphony of flavors unfolding. The sherry cask influence is evident, with layers of sweet, sticky dried fruits, complemented by baking spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. There's a gentle peat smoke that adds depth without overpowering the palate, reminiscent of Lagavulin and Laphroaig. The whisky evolves with time in the glass, revealing hints of honey, marzipan, and dark berries.
Finish: The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of oak, dark chocolate, and a touch of sea salt. The sweetness of the sherry casks lingers alongside a subtle earthiness and a hint of leather, leaving a satisfyingly rich and complex aftertaste.
Overall, this whisky offers a remarkable balance of flavors and a depth of character that reflects the influence of its long maturation in sherry casks, combined with the distinctive characteristics of the various distilleries represented in the blend.
