General description

Spectacular. Everything you heard it would be and yet somehow still more.

Nose

plums and dark fruits. Exceptionally sweet and luxurious. The richness just begs you to go ahead and take a sip, but you have to hold out that bit longer as it’s just such an occasion that cannot be rushed.

Palate

Immediately and most predominant are the prunes. Little bit of dates. So so luxurious and velvety. Hint of dark chocolate and some of the best Oloroso casks I’ve had.

Finish

Damn. Just lingers and begs for another sip. It’s no wonder people bought so many bottles and hoarded them!

Terrific sherry dram, full body, complex and long lasting. Drinks older than its 15 yrs! Reason I have 2 bottles.

General description

A very intense sherry dram, a bit too much for my taste. I prefer the smoother 12 year or the less intense and more complex 18 year (cheaper!) or 21 year. The Revival is getting overpriced fast.

It's a spiced Christmas dessert in a bottle. Sweeter than I normally prefer, but enjoyable when I'm in the proper mood.

General description

Sehr runder und mit schönem Sherry Geschmack. Es handelt sich hier insgesamt um Restbestände. Thorsten hatte mir vor dem Produktionsleiter eine Flasche geschenkt. Hier habe ich beim Whiskytadting beim Futtermittel eine nachgekauft. Leider etwas überteuert.

General description

The best whisky under £100 I have ever had. Rich, fruity, potent, spicy and totally memorable from 1st drop till last. Very hard to find but worth the cost if you can.

General description

Beautifully sherried, gives dark chocolate aromas on the nose with Christmas cake on the pallet. The finish lingers long after it is swallowed. A lovely winter warming dram!
