Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Grilled pineapple, doused with chimichurri dressing. Fresh leather and robust, estery oak. Vanilla rests in the depths, with a tropical touch of guava joining the ranks.
Palate
Super soft initially, before that leathery, dense oak packs a punch. Rich, earthen notes of brewed tea, treacle toffee, plus crumbly rum and raisin fudge.
Finish
Enjoyably spicy. Warm notes of baking spice, cloves, and cinnamon punctuate hearty helpings of stewed fruit, burnt sugar, drying oak, and oily tobacco.
