- Nose
- Rich bouquet of fruit and nut chocolate, marzipan, sweet spices, apple peel, crushed almonds, decayed vanilla, toffee popcorn, and Clynelish waxiness with melted butter.
- Palate
- Powerful and elegant with stewed pear, quince paste, apples, vanilla pod, salted peanuts, and cask char. Notes of tropical fruits, orange peel, lime juice, candied pecans, roasted walnuts, and oak baking spices.
- Finish
- A little hollow but with an impeccable mouthfeel. Water reveals white grapes and juicy pears.
