Tasting Notes
TWB Tasting Notes: Nose: The nose is intense and inviting, with powerful aromas of rich dark fruits such as raisins, plums, and figs, layered over a backdrop of earthy peat smoke. Notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and a hint of leather add complexity, while the Oloroso sherry influence brings a sweet and spicy warmth. Palate: The palate is full-bodied and richly textured, delivering a striking balance between smoky peat and sweet sherry flavors. The taste is dominated by dried fruits, such as dates and sultanas, intertwined with rich toffee, dark chocolate, and a touch of black pepper. The peat smoke is robust yet harmoniously integrated, adding depth and character without overpowering the sherry influence. Finish: The finish is long and warming, with the smoky and fruity elements lingering beautifully on the palate. Hints of spice and oak complement the sweet sherry notes, leaving a lasting and satisfying impression.
