It began in a French oak oloroso hogshead. Good, but not the sherry profile Little Brown Dog were chasing, so they moved it into PX sherry for a further nine months. The result is unapologetic. This is a big, sweet, sherry-driven whisky, and LBD do not pretend otherwise.

What keeps it from being one-dimensional is the spirit underneath. The slightly herbal Jura character holds up and pushes back through all that sherry, and there is no tannic harshness in the way. When they drew the last cask samples, the liquid was so dark they laughed.
