Maltiply Tasting Profile

Nose: Chocolate steamed cake, rye bread, meringue.
Palate: Thin-medium texture. Chocolate orange, cake sugar icing, spicy-savoury-sweet Chinese five-spice cookies, green tea, a bit of brininess appears on the last dregs.
Finish: Generally short to almost non-existent. Flash of raw egg white, then nothing... then a pop of rum-soaked raisins.

The hogshead cask is clearly identified, and the chocolate orange alongside the five-spice sweetness gives this an appealing, distinctive direction. The very short finish sounds like a limitation, though.
