The four batches consist of 4 components of varying amounts of each component for a similar yet distinct flavor profile across the four batches, all within the award-winning Redbreast family profile
Notes on the 14 year:
* Nose: Initial sweet notes of raisins and figs, typical of the Oloroso sherry casks with additional herbal notes of thyme and rosemary. The years spent in oak is quite evident, with rich toasted wood notes and vanilla, while remaining in balance with the Pot Still spices.
* Taste: Mouth coating with a rich texture, mild nuttiness and dried fruit character. The tannins evolve adding a slightly dry note along with berry fruits and dark chocolate.
* Finish: Long and lingering with the oak contribution continuing to evolve, while the Pot Still spices subside allowing the fried fruit notes to remain until the very end.
* 58.9% ABV
The Park James is a Broughton Hotel.
