Blind Sample from @WessexWhiskyIn the glass: darker gold, gravity defying swirls (no legs for ages!)
Nose: initial nose is winey with hints of tobacco? Sherry comes through along with a maltiness and a tiny hint of sulphur?
Palate: chewy, quite spicy but very smooth again creamy, hints of chocolate and red fruit.
Finish: gingery spice comes through in buckets with a little hint of that tobacco from the nose.
Notes: an enjoyable dram, impressions were a sherry cask matured Speysider but stronger than 40% - maybe 46%?
It turned out to be: Australian New World Whisky Distillery's Starward Solera at 43%
