Obsidian Eternity

PROFILE Deep Rich & Dried Fruits INITIAL CASK Ex-Oloroso Butts FINAL CASK 1st Fill Ex-PX Hogshead AGE 16 Years Old ABV 62.5% DISTILLED DATE 13 October 2008 OUTTURN 1 of 315 bottles REGION Speyside SPIRIT NOTES Emanating from the oven, the perfume of lebkuchen mingled with a moka pot of coffee, red wine and panna cotta topped with cracked black pepper and black cherries. The palate was sweet and woody, evoking pistachio biscuits, while candied mandarin and dark chocolate mingled with parma violets and rosemary. Water introduced fresh mint to the nose, alongside cream sherry, cinnamon gum and toasted waffles with candied ginger. The palate now delivered chocolate stout, stirred with liquorice and garnished with raspberries. At 10 years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
