Description
? The Madeira Influence
Madeira is a fortified wine, similar to Sherry or Port, produced on the Madeira islands. It undergoes a unique process of heating and controlled oxidation, giving it rich, complex notes of dried fruit, nuts, toffee, and burnt sugar. The long finish in this cask would deeply integrate these flavours with the Macduff spirit.
