7 year old Indian single malt whisky here from the Paul John range, finished in an Oloroso Sherry cask! This was distilled in 2009 and bottled at cask strength in 2016 without any chill-filtration or additional colours. Due to Goa’s warmer climes (compared to Scotland) means there’s more evaporation from the casks, but the whisky also shows well at a younger age.
Nose: Rich vanilla and dried orange, with Christmas cake and raisin developing later on.
Palate: Dark chocolate, pineapple, old oak, a heap of nutmeg and cinnamon.
