The Whisky Shop Dufftown's Tasting Notes
Nose |
WSD: Warm dark chocolate sauce on a wooden spoon then the sherry notes start coming through. |
Taste |
WSD: Medium sweet and well balanced on the palate with a very giving finish. A soft chocolate and sherry pillow to help relax at the end of the day. |
Distillery Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: Intense, deep, creamy. The sherry shows itself with luscious fruity and spicy notes.Enticing scents of exotic wood. Creamier notes rising. Orange creme brule; candied fruit; pineapple. |
Taste |
Distillery: Silky and caressing. Sweet at first then releasing a full bunch of spices; ginger, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg. Developing dark chocolate and orange peel flavours. |
Finish |
Distillery: Dry, spicy. Keeps teasing the taste buds all the way through and comes back on a sweeter fruity note. |
