Classy Sherry Monster with amazing Wood

Review by @galg
Nose: Not surprising – but this one’s packed with dried fruit : plum, date, sultana, it has got it all. thick rich, sherry influence, with some winter spice, chocolate, and quite a lot of polished wood, which is nice.
Palate: Thick and rich, and would benefit quite nicely from a few drops of water, Xmas cake, more dried fruit, and some fresh ripe black fruit as well : berries and some Blackcurrant.
Finish: Dark chocolate, filled with sherry soaked sultanas, cinnamon , wood varnish.
The bottle comes in a leather casing which is über cool, and adds a nice twist, but the liquid is the main act here. Very good stuff, for the sherry lover and those with a sweet tooth, and an afiinity to good wood, there’s quite a lot of that here and it’s beyond dried fruit, which is always a plus. good cask selection on this one. An after meal dram , if there ever was one. Would go wonderfully well with a rich chocolate cake (if you like those), or just some dark chocolate. Very good stuff.
