Tasting notes
Chris Goodrum (Gauntleys)
90%-ish Pot still
Aged for approximately 12 years. In a mixture of Old Bourbon, Oloroso and old whisky casks supplied by Diageo.
Very deep in colour and the aromas are likewise. Deep that is! The ageing in ex-whisky casks is definitely noticeable on the nose. The complexity is stunning – Herbal toffee, burnt oak, dried fruit, light Oloroso notes and building vanillins. Finally, after some minutes a hint of floral orange appears and the nose suddenly becomes incredibly floral.
The palate is very sweet with crystalised orange fruit and confected Oloroso notes. It progresses into the customary dried fruit strata, but the sweetness hangs on in there. Some wonderfully soft vanillins appear in mid-palate as do toffee, cream soda and liquorice. Intriguing and almost liqueur like. It’s definitely a desert rum
