SPIRIT NOTES
After 13 years in ex-bourbon wood, and being transferred into a first fill Spanish oak oloroso hogshead, you get medicine for the soul. On the nose we found prunes and ripe figs, blackcurrant cordial, vanilla, sandalwood and Carmen’s tobacco factory. The palate was dry, but with a rich seam of flavours to explore – dates, coconut, toffee apples, black grapes, cherries and licking a cigar box or a flamenco dancer’s clean leather heels. The reduced nose had German Christmas cookies, treacle scones, a gypsy guitar and blackcurrant bushes growing in a humidor. The mouth-puckering but hugely tasty palate gave us citrus, kirsch, figs and new leather sandals.
