| Tasting Notes |
| Robert Karlsson | A heavily wood-influenced nose. Special cardemom, winey, dry, surupy. Leather. Good stuff. Big big taste, yet not exceedingly so. This is very drinkable and enjoyable. A really fruity, dry, delicious woody baby. |
| Krishna Nukala | That sweetish, varnish, beefy nose!, Spirit spent long age in quality cask.dry, sweet & rounded, very smooth and dry finish- lots of dried fruits that you find in a heavily sherried whisky. (MMA 2010 blind tasting) |
| Rich Howard | on the nose, the sherry influence reveals itself with cherries and light grapefruit, and also dried fruits and nuts, almost a trail mix in there. on the palate, citrus and nuts, and plenty of wood. water adds zesty mandarin and lime to the nose, with a hint of aniseed, and the palate follows suit.
