Tasting Notes
Caperdonich 24 Year Old Pedro Ximénez Cask Finish (Darkness) is a true embodiment of the intense sherry flavor profile. This single malt whisky hails from the now-defunct Caperdonich Distillery, but its legacy lives on through this independent bottling. Matured for 24 years and then finished in a specially-coopered Pedro Ximénez sherry octave cask, it boasts a rich mahogany hue that hints at the depth of flavors within. The nose is a delightful blend of chocolate orange, mince pie filling, pineapple chunks, cherry, and a touch of salted caramel. On the palate, the chocolatey notes take center stage, accompanied by aromatic oak, brown sugar, raisin, molasses, and citrus oils. The finish lingers with chewy dates and treacle tart, leaving a lasting impression of this intensely-sherried dram. If you're a fan of sherry-matured whiskies, this expression from the Darkness range is sure to satisfy your craving for rich, indulgent flavors.
