SOUL O' PLAYS AND PRANKS

This 10 year old Speysider was matured in a refill hogshead and comes in at 59.3%.

Flavour profile:  Light & delicate.

Outturn:  267 bottles.

Panel's tasting note:  "As spiky as a passionate poet, prickling with assorted citrus, fresh pineapple, cheese curds, lemon bonbons, icing sugar, chamomile and a maple syrup drizzled cheesecake. Water throws up apple turnover cake with a hefty slathering of vanilla custard.

The palate has a fine texture, more maple syrup but a bittersweet quality as well. Some chewy toffee and a guilty note of chocolate eclairs. Even with water the texture is still luxurious and mouth-coating. Notes of gooseberry jam, stem ginger in syrup and rhubarb and custard sweeties. Barley water washed everything down nicely in the finish."
