Tasting Note

Nose: Fresh and vibrant. Crisp green apple, ripe pear, and lemon zest lead, layered with vanilla custard and soft malt sweetness. Hints of honeycomb and delicate floral notes—heather and wild thyme—add complexity, while gentle oak spice lingers in the background.

Palate: Full-bodied and lively. Juicy orchard fruits—pear, apple, and a touch of stone fruit—combine with rich caramel, cinnamon, and a subtle peppery warmth. The malt’s natural sweetness is balanced by light oak tannins and a gentle herbal bitterness.

Finish: Long and warming. Lingering notes of honey, vanilla pod, soft spice, and fresh malt fade gracefully.

Overall: A youthful yet complex Speyside malt that balances bright fruit and spice with cask strength intensity. Bold and expressive, yet refined.
