Please note as this is a vintage bottle, conditions of bottle/label and liquid level can vary - Some years can vary as estimations only (example: estimated 1970s/80s).
There are a fair amount of layers to this 12 year old whisky starting with the aroma: dark honey, cereal, citrus, and vanilla.
The sherry really comes on the scene when you taste the whisky with cinnamon, dried fruits, and bitter chocolate while the finish is pleasant and of decent length. In short, for the price, it's a solid choice.
