Official tasting note (92)

"A lovely colour, somewhere between auburn and a grubby two
pence piece. The bouquet at cask strength clearly indicates sherry cask
maturation, with a first impression of treacle, rum and molasses.
Among the demerara-esque aromas there is also some possible cherry and
banana notes. The taste at full strength confirms European wood, being
tannic and having a rubber finish, like ""the mouth-feel you get after a
good days snorkelling"". With water it becomes a touch spicy, with
star anise and cinnamon. With water the whisky retains its body on the
tongue very well, and almost doesn't taste diluted. It is
mouth-tingling, with an aniseed nip at the finish. A high impact whisky
from a long-deceased distillery, which holds together with time very
well indeed."
