Nose:
The hardy one. You get that every now and then with these sherry casks. But this one is not really smelling very well.
Anyhow, there is obvious sherry notes to be found. For the rest there is hay, sulphate, and tons of caramel.

Taste:
Very sweet. Caramel, molasses and cane sugar syrup. There is also the sulphate note as in the nose. It is not really nice though.
For the rest there are some sherry notes in the background.

Body:
Creamy

Finish:
Long finish. The sulphate notes are predominant. Not really nice. The finish is a bit drying. And there are some hay influences. At last it fades away with some tannins.

Price:
Don't know this was a given sample

Presentation:
Don't know this was a given sample.

Comments:
Given this a NAS, I assume this has been a whisky which went the wrong way in the barrel. Therefor they have bottled it quickly and made it a NAS, so they could charge more then people would pay for a very young one.
These type of sherried whisky's seem to be coming up on the market more and more often. I don't like it. Somehow there is a change in sherried whisky's.

Nose: young and malty with notes of burned hay, sulfurized raisins, plum brandy, cider apples and a touch of vanilla. Musty thing with a lot of foul fruit and a good pinch of sherry influence. No wood in the nose yet. But to call it "sherry bomb" is a bit over the top.
Taste: slightly tingling and creamy, lots of heat and now a good portion of nougat, some pepper and cherry, again a lot of overripe fruit and finally oak on the finish. It shows bitter coffee notes and the musty sulfur component comes back easily. Add to that a dry sherry sweetness (plum and overripe apple) that nicely rounds off the medium long finish. Significantly more than the nose suggests and the sherry influence is now clear.
Beautiful and typical but still too young Sherry-Glenrothes whose name is some over the top marketing. The 97er I like it a little better.
