Remarkable

Taste note

  • Colour:

    Pale gold

  • Nose:

    Starts off with fruits notes with light heaters honey peat with a hint of cedar wood.

  • Palate:

    Sweet vanilla, Sun-ripened peaches, summer berries, beautiful rich bodied red wine with at the end light peat smoke.

  • Finish:

    Long warm finish with lots of red wine influences, wood spices and creamy sweet vanilla.

  • Conclusion:

    The new Twisted Tattoo is a lovely presentation of a new cask that they are using. You can really taste the wine influence and the Rioja casks. The good combination of sweet and wine are balanced and the slight peat smoke really finishes it off nicely.
