AN ALICE IN WONDERLAND DRAM

This 16 year old Speysider comes in at 57.7% and is from a 1st fill barrel

Flavour profile:  Spicy & sweet

Outturn:  216 bottles

Panel's tasting note:  "The first nose was explosive with camphor, Berwick Balls and fruit pastilles. Sweeter notes of golden syrup, strawberry jam and tangerine pushed through. A crazy tea party ensued with ham baked in Coke and a dusting of Moroccan spices. The tasting was sensational, hot with gingerbread and nutmeg and then black fruit smoothie. Water opened the doors of a bakers oven - waves of biscotti, macademia nut, brindle toffee, orange water and buttermilk icing. By this point the panel were exhausted there was so much going on - they felt as though they had fallen down the rabbit hole."

Drinking tip:  "When looking for something truly unexpected."
