The Taoscán, 48.53%

Repeat sampling is instructive in dissecting the contributions of the oloroso, port, and chestnut casks on this 2006 single malt. The nose has dried cranberry, pecan, new leather, cola, stewed fruit, and peppercorn. A sticky mouthfeel of sugar syrup, black grape, malt, caramel Hershey's Kisses, and layers of clove, leather, licorice, and vanilla essence. Fire up that fine robust cigar that you've been saving, and you'll be all set. (4,000 bottles)
