Andrew's Tasting Note
Nose: soft, honeyed and fruity with loads of white chocolate and vanllla; orange marzipan and warm butter croissants; subtle juicy malt.
Palate: warming and malty with loads of honey, vanilla and white fruits: baked apple with cinnamon, poached pear and ripd juicy orange; still doughy and buttery with more marzipan and butter croissants.
Finish: long, coating and creamy it is almost waxy with loads of vanilla, honey, white fruits and gentle citrus.
Comment: at 53.2% there is no bite... this is young but very drinkable; a promissing sign of things to come!
Producer Tasting Note
"Flavours reminiscent of cinnamon, chocolate, and coffee offer a smooth but complex tasting profile with extra depth. This is the perfect sipping whisky, aged to perfection."
