Tasting notes by Serge Valentin (Whiskyfun.com) 86/100

Six months in oloroso sherry from Bodega Jose & Miguel Martin's. Corriecravie's got nothing to do with the Corrywreckan.

Colour: deep gold.

Nose: on the nose, those bitter apples combine extremely well with the sherry's usual walnuts and with the distillate's heavy smoke. Roasted pecans and walnuts all over the place, that's absolutely lovely, and unexpectedly balanced. With water: a sweet earthiness is rising…

Mouth (neat): great fun here, nothing being normal or 'usual' or whatever. We're between tequila and genever, with a heavy, ashy smokiness once more, touches of aquavit (a lot of caraway) and a lot of myrtle and eucalyptus. Very fat body too, very extractive drop. With water: no need to add much water, the wood would tend to come fight the smoke a wee bit.

Finish: very long, this time with some notes of earth tea, old pu-her style. Bitter oranges in the aftertaste.

Comments: a lot of action in this one, and a style that I had never encountered before. Peated genever ;-). Lovely!
