Official tasting notes.
Rich cocoa and compote intertwine with a light cereal oak to present a well integrated and familiar sherried whisky, with the palate weight of the spirit carrying currents, dates and spices through to a very long finish.

Description:
Aged in a sherry cask for just over 3 years and bottled cask strength, this Dark Valley iteration comes in at a palate defining 67.8% ABV. Rich and seriously viscous, it’s a nice example of ‘small cask format’ ageing that’s as indulgent as the night is long.
Dark Valley comments:
“Just like any creative occupation, perfecting whisky is as much an art as it is a science. Through the exactness of the ingredients and equipment flows an artistic stream that is liable to inspire and go in any direction. Much like an author channelling their imaginative craft onto the paper through their simple quill and ink. A whisky that is less of a random drink, more of a personal statement.”
