Can't remember the tasting notes for this one as it's been about a year since I polished off the 1st bottle, but I do remember that is was very good.

13yr old

Distilled: 11/05/1990
Bottled: 24/03/2004
Matured in a Sherry Butt
46% Alc./Vol.

Color: Deep Gold

Nose: Fruity and peaty, faint smoke

Palate: Vanilla and malty with some light sherry and peat.

Finish: Semi-long and drying with light bits sherry, peat, and smoke.
