This 2024 release is finished in PX Sherry casks from Royal Brackla Distillery, and the nose is dusty with a hint of rose petals, butterscotch, a kiss of smoke, honey, and vanilla. The taste has notes of fig jam, white pepper, dates, and a soft oakiness for a creamy mouthfeel. The finish is long and subtle. Outstanding! (September, 2024)
