Description
Tasting Note
Nose: Deep and complex. Rich dried fruits—figs, raisins, and dates—combine with honeyed malt, toasted oak, and warm spices such as cinnamon and clove. Layers of leather, dark chocolate, and a touch of orange zest add intrigue and depth.
Palate: Full-bodied and luscious. Sweet dried fruits mingle with caramel toffee, nutty marzipan, and rich molasses. Spices—nutmeg, cinnamon, and a hint of black pepper—bring warmth, balanced by a velvety malt sweetness and subtle oak tannins.
Finish: Long and warming. Lingering notes of honey, dried fruits, gentle spice, and soft oak fade slowly, leaving a rich, satisfying aftertaste.
Overall: A beautifully mature grain whisky, showcasing depth, richness, and complexity. Cask strength enhances its powerful character without overwhelming subtlety.
