Whisky Castle Oloroso (Cask 494)

Another creation from Elfingen Switzerland this rich dark chestnut-color dram combines their Smoke Barley with oloroso cask maturation. The nose is a merry mix of sweet peat smoke cushioned by Serrano ham dried fig and fish box reek. Berry fruits and sultana initially though the texture is quite tannic with the stronger alcohol showing through. It develops a bubblegum note with over-boiled fruit and some savory meat juices rounding off a short dry finish. CHF89
