THE LAST YEARS SPECIAL VATTING its very complex flavors are obtained thanks to - an old, mature, spicy and mellow whisky (matured in Oloroso cask) - an iodine and peaty younger whisky with fresh structure and very expressive flavors (matured in PX cask). - a delicate and subtle whisky (like our Pale Single) which is helpful for this good balance. Deep and rancio mellow flavors of whiskies matured in old Sherry casks are enhanced by the iodine and fresh almond peaty salted younger whiskies. Sherry, leather, tabac, delicate and subtle woody flavors. Delicious silky texture, nice balance. A peat absolutely delicious, reminding the liquorice tastes. Consumed at room temperature as a digestive, it’s the best companion of cigars.
