This wonderful spirit is a masterfully crafted blend of 15-year-old single malts, each carefully matured and expertly married to perfection and finished in the finest ex-sherry oak casks. The casks originate from the popular bodegas in Jerez, Spain- the homeland of fortified wines.
This meticulous process infuses the Scotch whisky with a subtle sweetness and profound depth of flavour, making it a standout in the Johnnie Walker lineup. The signature Sherry-only flavours of the whisky, which feature notes of candied fruits, dried fruits and cocoa is traditionally from the Scottish Clynelish Distillery.
Nose: A deep, almost buttery fragrance that’s laced with sweeter, floral notes reminiscent of the Clynelish. It then opens up to aromas reflecting the Autumn season, such as honey, baked goods, and a touch of vanilla.
Palate: Welcomes a burst of sweetness and bold spices courtesy of the use of sherry casks. Notes of candied fruits, nuts, and dark chocolate mingle with fresh spices such as nutmeg, cinnamon, star anise, and cardamom.
Finish: A touch of water intensifies the floral notes and syrupy character while introducing an underlying smoothness. It also lengthens the rich fruitiness and complexity, with a sweet and aromatic finish.
