Nosing: Sweet sherry notes reminiscent of Glendronach/macallan cross.

Taste: Very similar to macallan but with a much stronger sherry palate.

Finish: looooooong finish of sherry.

Comment: If you like sherry bombs this one is it. If you like macallan, glengoyne, and glendronach you will love this,
