Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep mahogany-amber with rich dark tones; full body. The heavy char and PX sherry finishing create the darkest expression in the Glen Scotia range
Nose
Brown sugar, cinnamon, powdered sugar, hot salted caramel, mint, fruitcake, overripe plums, charred oak and spent coffee grounds. Complex and intense
Palate
Sweet and somewhat softer than expected from the nose. Salted caramel, coffee, mocha, chocolate almond milk, French toast with powdered sugar and maple syrup. A modern interpretation of Victorian Campbeltown style
Finish
Salty with a sharp flash of burn. Medium finish with persistent charred oak and coffee bitterness giving way to sweet caramel

Maturation
The wood it came through
First and second-fill bourbon barrels
finished in heavily charred bourbon casks and PX sherry butts
