Tullibardine 500 Sherry Cask. Image courtesy Tullibardine. It’s not named for a Scottish auto race, but the 500 litres of whisky that a Sherry butt can hold. The nose is fresh and fruity with red apples, peaches, pears, a hint of red grapes, mild spices, and a touch of honey. The taste is fruity and spicy with cinnamon and clove balanced by apples, peaches, honey, and vanilla with a hint of oak. The finish is fruity and long with fading spices. Very nice! (April, 2o14)
