Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery:ย Rich notes of fruit cake, mingling with sweet demerara sugar and vanilla. Underlying hints of zingy citrus and dark chocolate develop with a touch of warm spice. With a few drops of water top notes of sweet vanilla, ripe pear and melon and luscious summer berries mingle with hints of butterscotch and citrus peel. |
Taste |
Distillery:ย ย Delicious sweetness of stewed raisin and apple is wonderfully complimented by dark chocolate. Notes of orange zest, toffee, ginger and liquorice follow, leading to a hint of smooth creaminess and lingering charred oak on the finish.ย With water a creamy sweetness combining with sherry influences and baked plum immediately emerges followed by traces of cinnamon and chocolate. Hints of orange, apricot and charred oak blend with subtle spice and a light touch of smoke to finish. |
