After 4 years of maturation in Manzanilla sherry casks, this malt has a slight oakiness with notes of figs, brown sugar, and allspice. The taste has a cinnamon note that lingers, along with brown sugar, heather, and a hint of sea air. The finish is brine and sea air with a lingering cinnamon note and a hint of raisins.
