Nose
Bright and fresh with floral and creamy aromas. Pear drops, custard creams, orange blossom, peach and apricot notes are complimented by a touch of toasted coconut. Caramel, toffee, dark honey, dried fruits, plums, figs, apple, nuts, pepper, little ginger, spices, hint of sherry, herbs, whiff of leather, little woody, parsley.
Palate
Oily, creamy, caramel, toffee, dark honey again, sherry wood, spices, dried fruits, jam, subtle sweetness, hint of soy sauce, little meaty, pepper. Notes of fruit continue alongside the velvety, buttery and delicate nature of this whisky with an introduction of slightly sweet, yet tart stewed apples. Buttercream and honeycomb preside with syrupy notes of glazed apricots and a hint of orange zest. A herbaceous quality emerges reminiscent of dried tea leaves.
Finish
Long, warm, caramel, woody, spices. Elements of spice and nuttiness follow with notes of gingerbread and pecans. The herbal qualities are prolonged and a lemon sherbet note provides a welcome vibrance and tang towards the end.
