Our 15 Year Old Sherry Cask Finish Batch 1 is a combination of 2003 malt whiskey aged in ex-bourbon casks and finished for a year in 1st fill Oloroso sherry casks, along with a 2008 grain whiskey matured in ex-bourbon casks and finished for two years in Oloroso hogsheads.

Bottled at 46% Vol, non-chill filtered, and with its natural colour intact, this limited batch release is a rare find.

Nose

On the nose you can immediately detect notes of zesty orange marmalade and sweet dried apricots, which are balanced by a creamy maltiness and an earthy vanilla pod. The aroma is completed with a subtle hint of buttered toast, providing a comforting and inviting sensation.

Palate

On the palate, the whiskey delivers a rich and smooth experience, with creamy vanilla being the dominant flavor, followed by a delightful combination of pancakes and maple syrup, floral honey, and dried fruits. The whiskey also showcases a burst of fresh cantaloupe and lively citrus notes that bring a refreshing and invigorating sensation to the palate.

Finish

As the tasting experience comes to an end, the finish is characterised by a decadent combination of flavours. The chocolate-covered almond notes provide a satisfying sweetness, complemented by a delightful vanilla shortbread flavour. The finish is prolonged with a final burst of honey, adding a pleasant and sweet aftertaste to the whiskey.
