Oloroso is a dry, nutty, full-bodied sherry style that adds dried fruit, walnut, brine, and dark character quite different from the sweeter Pedro Ximénez style. The combination of Stranahan's high-altitude Colorado distillation and decades-old Oloroso casks produces one of the most distinctive expressions in the American single malt category.
