Pedro Ximenez shines, and the sherry influence is immediately apparent. It's well-balanced, with a soft and subtle peatiness that emerges at the end, almost like a lingering aftertaste. If you're seeking something intensely smoky, this isn't it, but I would recommend it to anyone desiring something a bit intricate.
