SPIRIT NOTES
The aroma was that of tender, moist, slow-cooked pulled pork with a homemade barbecue sauce next to apple-glazed barbecued baby back ribs. If you are not hungry yet wait for the taste, as we tucked into roast duck breast with a hazelnut sauce. After reduction, the scent of ripe plums, heather honey, treacle tarts next to cranachan and Turkish delight added to the foodie theme. The taste was like grabbing a handful of real fruit juice jellies and soft pistachio nougat. Following 10 years in an ex-bourbon hogshead, we transferred this whisky into a second fill port barrique.
