Robusto Cigar Malt, 8 years
Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, The Whisky Cellar
Description
A whisky like Christmas in a glass! Discover the sweet, smoky blended malt Scotch whisky matured for 8 years in an Oloroso sherry cask. Its beguiling aroma is reminiscent of the Christmas season with dried fruit, coffee beans and warming spices, combined with elegant smoke. Powerful and balanced on the palate, it reveals flavours of orange zest, Medjool dates and gingerbread spices as well as a hint of cigar. Its finish is spicy and strong. Its flavours are best enjoyed neat. A few drops of water open up new flavours. No added sugar or caramel. Goes very well with a cup of Arabica coffee, a sweet and rich dessert or a piece of dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa.
