Tasting Notes

Nose

Honeyed barley, dried fig, vanilla and a warm oloroso sweetness.

Raisin, toffee apple, hazelnut, cinnamon and a denser sherry character than the 12.

Finish

Long, oaked, with lingering dried fruit and a gentle dry spice.

Expert Review

9/10

An older sibling to the famous DoubleWood 12, matured in American oak and finished in first-fill European oak sherry casks under the guidance of malt master David Stewart.
