Description

This Art Deco inspired bottling by Decadent Drams is a marriage of two sherry hogsheads, distilled in 2010, and then married together in a first fill sherry hogshead for two years. It produced 266 bottles and is described as a thick, tarry, and unapologetically Islay single malt, delivering salted liquorice, bacon jam, camphor, and seawater over deep sherry sweetness, making it a big, coastal, umami beast.

Nose
Very tarry, richly peaty with a sensation of sweetness from sherry influence, balanced by umami notes and salty liquorice, cured meat, camphor, and maritime air.
Palate
Thick and smoky with tarred rope, camphor, seawater, iodine, salted almonds, bacon jam, dense tar, brine, sherry-soaked fruit, and herbal peat, with an intense texture and sticky, oily weight.
Finish
Long, very coastal, salty, umami, and meaty with pure peat smoke in the aftertaste, seawater, tar, medicinal smoke, and savoury sherry depth.
