Penderyn Sherrywood is matured in ex-bourbon barrels and ex-Oloroso Sherry casks - a change from their classic expression, which is finished in Madeira casks.
Heaps of fresh apples and pears! Sweet candy floss, creamy vanilla, oak and prunes.
Barley sugar sweets, Ryvita crackers and sherried sultanas, hints of peach and creamy malt throughout.
Peppery dry, creamy butter fudge and yet more pepper prickle on the finish!
Not to my taste..
I don't claim to be an expert, but Penderyn is pretty good. Rather better than the average whisky, and reasonably priced. Unless you live in Australia, in which case, don't bother. Customs take forever to send a bill, and when they do, it nearly doubles the price of the bottle. Customs charges greater than the cost of a bottle of whisky from a bottle shop? Someone's having a laugh. I won't be doing this again. But then, how else does one get Welsh whisky in Australia?
