Tasting notes
Palate
The palate follows the nose: sherry or bourbon, depending on the card, and a closed-distillery malt, with the wood and the proof deciding the weight.
Finish
Medium. The grain or malt fades and the cask stays a little longer. A different bottling in the same line will not taste identical.
