Ben Nevis 21 year old ‘Past Future’

Nose: Actually not what i was thinking of when i read ‘sherry cask’. it’s not heavily sherried, more a fruity edge to it. first of all you get apples, baked apples, more like sweet apple sauce, but not only that… there’s also some poached pears, more vanilla, wood and some nutmeg / clove and a hint of sweet dough, .and also some older wood notes, and some old books in a 2nd hand book shop. certainly not your sherry bomb, no dried fruit, none of that. But, that’s not bad, is it? it’s quite a lovely nose indeed. Palate : lovely, sweet and savory, with more apple / peat and sweeter syrupy goodness, some tropical fruity candy (pineapple, mango) , and a good balance of wood spices. creamy vanilla as well with a dusty touch at times, cardboard, or again the old paperbacks, pepper and anise. Finish: dry wood, minty after 8 treats, and some pepper and more wood.
