To be honest, I had to take a short break after that Old Hobart, I felt a bit disillusioned what comes to international malts. Let's have a sherried one at low strength. A young german single malt finished in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. So, its not a 100% sherried edition then. Remember its the superyoung, diluted, finished 1st edition, so we'll make no judgement of Slyrs based on this review alone. The color is amber orange. It smells sweet sherry, bitter vinegar, kirsch, orange peel, orange liqueur, sure its young, but this finish seems to have had its effect. The taste is sweet, raisins, plums, honey, sweet sherry, red onions, cinnamon, a really nice sherry finished youngster. The finish is on heather, turmeric and honey.
A nice surprise, I usually don't enjoy cask finishes as much as this: 6
Next tasting: Imperial Distillery
