A limited edition of the Darkness range, this Blair Athol has been finished in small Oloroso Sherry casks before being bottled at its natural strength. The small capacity of these casks, around 60 litres, increases the influence of the wood on the whisky. Intensely sherried, Darkness impresses with its very sweet, fruity and spicy aromas. An original whisky with a complex and remarkable character.
Gourmand, épicé. Prunes, chocolat, raisins secs.
Tasting notes
Nose : Prunes acidulées, raisins secs très doux, praliné au chocolat au lait.
Palate : Sirop de chocolat avec de légères notes herbacées et délicatement sucrées, du pin et des épices boisées.
Overall : Notes boisées persistantes mais pleines de douceur, de sève et d'épices.
