From the Distillery
- “This release is another special ex-sherry cask, this one a Pedro Ximénez hogshead. Decadent might not be too strong of a word. A classic example of this style of single malt from the old world but with the new world update of roasted malts.”
- Flavor Profile: “The nose is full of dark, savory notes including toasted sesame seeds with mole sauce and dark chocolate.
