Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: Light yet complex, the nose shows malt and ripe fruit. but against a coastal backdrop, before forest floor aromas and smoked meats wreathed in scented wood smoke combine as if to form the lost memory of a woodland banquet. |
Taste |
Distillery: Very smooth on the palate, more so with a little water, the taste is sweet and spicy, with hints of ginger and spiced peach. |
Finish |
Distillery: The long finish is warming, smoky and aromatic; smoothly drying and lightly waxy. |
