From the Tasting Panel
- Dawn Davies MW
- “Nose: Dates, raisins, sticky toffee, orange peel, plum pudding with kirsh soaked cherries and a top note of rancio.”
- “Palate: A lovely lick of saltiness with rum and raisin, hints of cherry, sugar coated plums and orange peel.”
- “Finish: Long and rich with nutty Marsala notes.”
- Billy Abbott, The Whisky Exchange
- Nose: “Rich caramel and fruity dark chocolate to start: posh Rolos. Brown sugar is followed by liquorice and berry fruit – blackberries and blackcurrants – with a touch of polished oak. Raisin-studded fruit cake hides at the back.”
- Palate: “Stacks of rich fruit and dark sweetness: stewed peaches and apples with raisins, sultanas, dates and prunes all drizzled with toffee sauce. Dark bready notes develop, spread with cherry jam, lightly charred and sprinkled with hazelnuts.”
- Finish: “Chocolate-covered liquorice and cherry jam fade to leave fruit cake topped with glacé cherries.”
