- Nose
- Lively and inviting, with an explosion of yellow fruit (lemon, peach, green apple, ripe pear), mineral and floral notes, hints of leather and yeast. Also notes of key lime pie, apple jelly, honey, vanilla, butterscotch, custard creams, apple butter, white miso, cream sponge, and poached pear sweetness.
- Palate
- Nicely oily, offering a balance between fruity sweetness and earthier tones. Citrus and marzipan blend with toasted bread and oats. Ex-bourbon cask brings vanilla, earthy peat, and white pepper. Creaminess with notes of banoffee pie, vanilla custard, panna cotta, shortbread crust, smooth caramel chocolate, gooseberries, white grapes, cigar box smoke, and sandalwood.
- Finish
- Medium length, with a balanced conclusion of gentle peat, malty sweetness, and a slight bitterness of citrus peel. Mineral and tropical fruit notes linger, leaving the palate dry and clean. Sea salt and brine notes emerge, along with a gorse note, hints of green peppercorn, honeydew melon, and an ashy note.
