Tasting notes
Chris Goodrum (Gauntleys)
Aged for 9 years in Bourbon casks, then blended and given a final year in Sherry casks.
Again a very big nose. Opening with charred/ toasted oak, light orange/ tangerine fruit before the dried fruits wade in. Hints of linseed oil and sherry cask, which develops a floral/ violet note. Lovely purity.
The palate is very whisky like, with a restrained sweetness. An absolute riot of dried fruit – dates, raisins and banana. Very complex with developing herbal/ vegetal notes on the middle. Superb intensity, and although only 40%, the alcohol seems to imbue it with more punch(?) and balances the sweetness well, leaving quiet a dry finish.
