Going on two years since Billy Walker and his team took over the distillery, they now have a new dram to add to their impressive core range of malts. Said to be the Jewel in the crown Billy Walker has crafted this new expression from a combination of Pedro Ximnez and Oloroso sherry puncheons and hogsheads. Bottled at 46% vol, official tasting notes describe the palate as raisins and butterscotch develops to banana, orange peel and dark chocolate sounds delightful!

“Lashed with rich sherry aromas of baked orange, cherry, currants, chopped peel, ground cinnamon, and cocoa powder; its rich and intense, and pulsing with bold sherry cask character. Dark chocolate and Seville orange marmalade kick off the palate, with Nutella, black pepper, oak, cola, sultana, and some ground coffee flavors. A warming finish with dark chocolate and citrus notes.” 92 Points – Whisky Advocate
