Small Story

This was the bottle that changed one regular guest from bourbon-only to sherried Scotch. We served it with orange peel on the side, and the marmalade note immediately opened up. Since then, it has been our benchmark for elegant cask influence. It is now our most requested recommendation for guests exploring premium sherry-cask profiles.

Tasting Notes Overview

Rich yet controlled: bright orange and dark fruit aromatics lead into toffee, coffee, and polished oak with a long, warming finish.
