Introducing a limited edition, 2011 single cask whisky, bottled to celebrate the Chinese Zodiac Year of the Horse.

Matured in a Pedro Ximénez sherry butt, just 817 numbered bottles have been released to retailers in the UK and abroad.

The nose opens with a burst of orange zest and dried cranberries before moving in a sweeter direction with notes of honeycomb and candy floss. Throughout, notes of cinnamon, tiramisu, mulled wine, and even jalapeno leap out and pull the nose in different directions. There’s something new to be found every time you pick up the glass.

The taste is a bit more structured than the nose suggests, but still full of varied flavours like candied almonds, toffee apples, sultanas, and salted liquorice. The finish is long and round with lingering baking spice.
