An independent and delicious sherried bottling of Auchriosk single malt from Darkness. This 21-year-old expression has been finished in a specially-coopered Moscatel sherry octave cask, allowing for huge sherry-bomb notes, before being bottled at 53.3% abv.
The nose has freshly baked apple pie, honeycomb, dried fruits and strawberry jam, making way for festive spices on the palate and more sweetness. The taste is nutty and citrusy, with a crackle of black pepper in the finish.
