Erwin Johnston 4.0

An outstanding Scotch, matured in Oloroso casks, giving it a color and finish akin to bourbon. As a bourbon enthusiast, I find this Scotch very appealing, with a moderate cinnamon finish.

Maxine Heaton 2.3

The overly sweet fruit notes on the nose weren't my preference, but the taste is like a typical Speyside I enjoy, with a mild sherry finish. While not my top choice, it's a very drinkable Scotch.

Simon Heredia 3.3

Overpowering alcohol initially, but it carries the anticipated caramel from whisky and raisin notes from the sherry barrels. I wished for greater depth.

Frederick Schwarz 2.3

Nose: Robust malt and citrus notes. Palate: Malt and dried fruit flavors. Finish: Intriguing, with a long-lasting spice and nuttiness.

Leslie Menard 4.3

Packed with sherry-infused fruit, warming spice, and sweet caramel, plus a touch of nuttiness. A lengthy, predominantly dry sherry finish.

Maryann Chow 3.8

The sherry finish imparts a strong grape and wine character. It has a sweet finish with notes of fig and raisin, followed by a mild burn.
