Penderyn Madeira Finish Single Malt, 46%
Price: $70 ● Issue: Fall 2019 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick
This nugget of Welsh gold has a nose of candied orange and lemon slices, toasted spices, herb garden, light vanilla, and the oils of finely shredded peel. On the palate, there's toffee and orange cake, an array of tropical fruits with papaya and passion fruit sweetness, and a good thrust of pepper and clove, leaving just a hint of grated chocolate and cask char in a dry finish.
