Description
Not even single grain whisky can escape the reach of Darkness! This North British spent 3 months in first-fill, 50 litre Oloroso Sherry casks before it was bottled. These casks were specially coopered and allow for much more interaction between the whisky and wood, resulting in more complexity and a rich depth of Sherry notes. Nothing escapes the Darkness!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
A hint of raspberry bush, tobacco leaf and vanilla. Flamed lemon peel, custard pastries, bay leaf and nutmeg.
Palate
Brown sugar, blueberry a touch of evaporated milk, sweet spice and rich caramel.
Finish
Crème brûlée with a liberal dusting of nutmeg.
Overall
There's something Christmassy about this combination of spices and egg custard style notes, but if you're more comfortable with vanilla caramel than eggnog then you're still in the right place.
