North Star Spirits North Star Spirits Spica 1989 (29 year old) 45.5%
American & European oak
Dist: 1989 Btl: Feb 2019
Tasted: Mar 2019
A rich, robust and mature nose with raisinated fruit cake, dusty American oak and hints of lime, gooseberry and subtle grainy spices. Very aromatic with the grain pushing through with time.
The palate opens with the slightly creamy American oak and oxidised fruit. Subtler sherried dried fruit follows along with hints of liquorice and earth. Very juicy with sultana, gooseberry, cranberry and apricot. Grippy and grainy on the middle. Long with a peppery spice finish and lingering grainy dried fruit. Light treacle and dark chocolate after-taste.
