Whisky Exchange Tasting Note

Nose: Gluttonous retro desserts: Victoria sponge with raspberry jam, pear drops, cherry brandy and a pink champagne cake. Underneath the initially syrupy scent, there’s unctuous notes of carnauba wax and tarry rope, and a slick of engine oil.

Palate: Chewy and richly textured, with wine gums, grape jelly and heather honey. A hint of coastal flavour – sea salt and damp driftwood – is quickly replaced by chocolate stout cake, root beer brewed with sassafras root, cinnamon and kola nut.

Finish: Slowly turning drier and drier, with more dusty cinnamon, caca beans, Amarone wine and cherries coated in chocolate.
