- Description
- This is a fortified wine, not whisky—La Gitana Amontillado Seco from Hidalgo is a Spanish sherry aged for at least 30 years in a solera system. The palate balances subtle sweetness with spice and umami, revealing wildflower honey, praline, clove, and sea salt. Serve as an aperitif with olives and cured meats, or explore it as a meditation drink in its own right.
