Five Lions –Aberlour 8-Year-Old, First-Fill Oloroso Sherry Scotch Whisky Tasting Notes

Nose: Hits the nose with a nose with an interestingly sour mix of spice and citrus, like a tart with a lot of lemon, a punch of ginger and a hint of flowers in the background.

Palate: While the first sip hits the tongue like a pleasantly floral honey, that lasts for barely a moment before sharply snapping into a very potently spicy character, primarily with notes of clove and pepper.

Finish: The finish is long and oaky with touches of toffee and caramel.
