Nose

Sweet, dried fruits (plums, raisins), ripe red apples, melon, nutmeg, oak, some dusty and sulfur notes, honey and toffee with water

Palate

Sweet, peppery, malty, porridge, ginger, berry jam, orange zest

Finish

Medium-long, warm, slightly sweet, oaky, mouthwatering but getting dry fast, nutty feeling

Conclusion

Pleasant whisky, nice on the nose with typical sherry notes + hint of sulfur. Quite punchy on its full strength but getting milder with water. Also noticeable malty notes, which still can be found even after 15 years sherry maturation. But overall impression remains good, whisky is well balanced and rather complex for the age. The price of 70-80 euros looks quite high but sometimes you can get it for as low as 50 euros and that is a great price for this whisky
