Nose
Rich and full on the nose. Fresh apple and pear jam aromas are followed by white chocolate. The oak cask is well integrated with hints of vanilla and cinnamon. A touch of peat smoke is also present.
Palate
A rich and oily texture. The apple brandy cask influence is prominent with fruit compote, orange marmalade, and pear drops. A subtle hint of ginger and cinnamon spice is also present.
Finish
Satisfying, subtle, and sweet. The finish is long and mellow with notes of chocolate, cinnamon, and a gentle apple tang.
