Tasting notes Serge Valentin: 86 points (Whiskyfun.com)
Love the 'export exclusive' mention, that reeks of the good old days. They could have added 'export quality'. Remember, basically, amontillado is a wine that started as a fino, so under flor, and that became an oloroso, so oxidative.
Colour: gold.
Nose: great fun. Smoked walnuts and mustard, cigars, eucalyptus, bitter chocolate, hashish and old embrocations. Vaporub. With water: geared towards breads.
Mouth (neat): awesome, with a curious but excellent bubblegum + walnuts combo. What didn't quite work in the previous ones is working a treat here. Also citron liqueur, always a winner at WF Towers. With water: some sweet spices plus bergamots and kumquats. Green peppercorn.
Finish: long, with a tight, citrusy, zesty spiciness. You could drink this with Pad Thai. Touch of mint in the aftertaste.
Comments: very clever composition, with a genuine Jerezian feeling.
