Hamish Says
Nose: filled with the usual floral and fresh fruitiness that Miyagikyo is famous for, and a hint of dark fruits and summer berries.
Palate: the sherry influence peaks through with notes of dried fruits and caramel filling the front of the palate and dark chocolate touching the back of the tongue to create a pleasant bitterness.
Finish: peppery and spicy with just a hint of dried fruit lingering.
