It was opened at the 15th anniversary celebration of Campbelltown Loch, Yurakucho. The aroma is a strong sherried character with the noble quality of a 60s sherry cask, and it is very complex and heavy with dried fruits, caramel, coffee, and spices or herbs. Although it's a very sherry cask, the maturation is not too long so you can also feel barley from deeper within. When drinking it, the texture is thick and concentrated with a viscous feel, and the strong, complex sherry nuances similar to the aroma are strongly felt. It has a deep flavor with a rich jam-like sweetness and a slight astringency, with the strength of a high proof whisky, and the aftertaste is very pleasant and long. Although it's a very sherry cask malt, the maturation is not too long, and the thick body with a refined finish was simply amazing.
