POPCORN IN A SAUNA

This 13 year old Speysider is from a 1st fill barrel and comes in at 56.3%

Flavour profile:  Juicy, oak & vanilla

Outturn:  214 bottles

Panel's tasting note:  "The initial nose had peachy perfume and polished bookcases. Soon we were in a cinema foyer as popcorn dominated and sweet notes of toffee with hazelnuts lingered in the background. The palate had orange ice cream cones and vanilla fudge with hints of lemon, sherbet and chili. On reduction the nose was warm and comforting; Belgian waffles, toast with jam and chocolate milk after a bowl of Coco Pops. Hot pine wood took us to a sauna where we indulged in large helpings of popcorn and a little more ice cream (rum and raisin). Thai spice and sweet candy apples combined for a well balanced  finish."

Drinking tip:  "While watching a good movie"
