Bourbon Hogshead
Dist: Nov 1986 Btl: May 2017
Tasted: Jun 2017
Beautifully tropical (apricot, banana, kiwi, green grape) in that mature way and exuberantly honeyed. Hints of citrus and rock salt balance the sweetness and although the oak is quite subtle, it does become buttery with time. Aromatic and musky with barley husks, Demerara sugar, treacle and cinnamon.
Wow! Now that’s a palate and a halt. Opens with molten honey, barley and buttery oak, followed by gentle tropical fruit, salt and citrus. The oak displays a lovely, mature sawdusty character and it really fills out on the middle. Wonderfully salty and citric finish with lingering lemon, apricot, kiwi and honey. A little drying at the death but the honey hangs on in there and offsets.
