Barbadillo Old Dry Oloroso Cuco: A Sip of History

Olivia Park — Solid sherry, does the job

6/10

Tried this at a tapas place and ordered a bottle online after. It's a nice oloroso — the dried apricot and fig flavours come through well and it doesn't taste as boozy as 19.5% sounds. Not life-changing but I'd happily have it in the cupboard for when mates come round.

Idris Ibrahim — Really nice after-dinner sipper

7/10

Picked this up for a dinner party and it was a hit. The butterscotch and nutty thing going on is gorgeous, and it went down way too easy for nearly 20% ABV. At twenty quid it's a solid shout if you want something a bit different.

Daniel Oyama — Not quite my thing

5/10

My partner loves sherry so I grabbed this as a birthday present. It's alright — the fig and raisin flavours are nice enough but I found it a bit intense for me. Probably one for sherry fans rather than casual drinkers. Decent quality though for the price.
