Glendronach Cask Strength Batch 2

from a purchased sample

Nose: Rich and inviting, though still graceful. Honey-toffee, oxidized sherry, some nits, sour grapes, apples, cinnamon, baking spices. Mix of sweetened dried fruit nibs, and all rather light and airy. Fudge, dry cocoa powder, and something tart and acidic. Raisins. Bread pudding.

Palate: There's maybe more wood and a touch of low-tannic bitterness, but it's all what's promised on the nose. Full, rich, warm, and sexy. Quaffable, rather. Oxidized sherry, salt, toffee, light grapey syrup, cinnamon, cardamom, and Christmas pudding. Honey, coffee, and baked custard and dessert wine. Delicious.

Finish: Goes more on bread pudding, custard, Christmas pudding, and all rather creamy, with sweet spices. Fudge and coffee notes, too. Raisins (still a little plump). Dates, jammy red berries. This is really full and excellent. Well constructed and hard to put down. I just need to get me a bottle.
