A warm smokey indulgent stir using a fantastic whisky, Nomad, the only whisky in the world to age in Gonzalez Byass cellars in Jerez, coming into contact with the wild yields and flors that imbue the bodegas. The original blend is made up of 5-8year old whiskies which are left to mature in sherry buts in Scotland for 3 years, before being transferred to Jerez for a minimum of 12 months. This is then cooled over ice with a splash of Oloroso, Pedro Ximenez and also some Lacuesta Vermut. These fortified wines add character and depth to the mix, sweetening with a hint of maple.
