TASTING NOTE: Dripping with fresh, clean, ultra high quality oloroso there remains enough tangy malt to underscore the island location; a fabulous marriage of juicy grape and thick, uncompromising malt. It is an arm wrestle for supremacy between the two...but it is the delicate spices which win; salty chocolate raisin; a tang to the oils on both nose and finish suggests an over widened middle, but such is the quality of the sherry butts and the intensity of the salt-stained malt, all is forgiven.
