Tasting notes

On the nose: The sherry is extremely prominent on this release. The nose is very raisin forward, with subtle hints of vanilla, and a touch of oak.

In the mouth: Hints of spearmint blending perfectly with the sherry, and the taste of soy sauce that melds perfectly with a very mellow twinge of vanilla following on the back end. Very approachable, and flavourful dram.
