800790

A rich, darkly sherried Knockando from the Managers Choice series. This official bottling was distilled in 1996 and aged for 12 years in (presumably first fill!) sherry cask #800790 before bottling in March of 2009. A release of 612 bottles.
Tangy and fruity nose with coffee, aniseed liqueur, leather, rose petals and cocoa powder.
Rich and intense with notes of coffee cake, chocolate, fresh flowers, musty sherry, potpourri and hints of Morello cherry.
Long and spicy, ending on espresso and Oloroso.

Not a patch on the 25 yr old, though released at a higher price. Rich, lovely French oak and sherry flavours, but a bit too pruney and overwhelmed with sherry. Lacks a bit of smoothness, complexity and refinement.
