Distilled July 2007 and bottled May 2021. Aged 13 years in second fill Bourbon Hogshead. Finished in Tawny Port Hogshead. Cask #668. 227 bottles produced. 52.8 ABV
Color: Rosy
Nose: Cereal forward with a certain grassiness that gives way to hints of gingerbread cake, hazelnut skins, and lit incense sticks.
Palate: Pleasantly spicy at entry but with big, juicy jammy notes midpalate (think blackberry / strawberry fruits boiling rapidly in your jelly pot!), pay attention around the edges to find the cracked black pepper.
Finish: Decent length with abundant Licorice All-Sorts, hints of ground ginger and cinnamon, and then quietly drying.
