Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: Sweet summer fruits,refreshing red apples, and zesty lemon and lime. A touch of vanilla emerges and cinnamon notes develop, underlined by a touch of peat smoke and a peppermint edge. With water, lime and grapefruit at first, with hints of delicious toasted malt and sweet vanilla with eucalyptus notes in the background. |
Taste |
Distillery: Sweet and bursting with intense fruit... succulent dark cherry and orange, sharper kiwi and gooseberry... and these combine wonderfully with creamy milk chocolate and a gentle smoky edge. With water at first its gently spicy, quickly followed by sweet raspberry and tangerine flavours, and hints of almonds complementing the underlying peat smoke edge. |
Finish |
Distillery: The finish is gloriously long and fruity with a hint of smoke. |
