Description

Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: Complex and lightly smoky on the nose with aromas of summer rose, ripe pear and fresh coconut gathering on a wave or aromatic peat with a hint of cedar wood in the background. |
Taste |
Distillery: A sweet and spicy harmony of flavours follows; poached pear and rich almond cake, a drizzle of cloudy honey and a twist of salty liquorice, the suggestion of toasted oak. |
Finish |
Distillery: Intriguing notes of orchard fruits, black pepper and sweet aniseed linger, in a satisfyingly long finish. |
