"The nose is inviting with subtle fruit and hints of herbs. The palate reveals fruit, peach and vanilla with hints of herbs, just as a chef would add a pinch of allspice to a peach pie to counter the sweetness of the peach and vanilla. Floral notes return on the finish."

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with coppery undertones and a warm, mahogany glow.
Nose
An inviting nose of subtle fruit and herbal notes, elegantly restrained and poised to unfold into the whisky's refined sweetness and depth.
Palate
On the palate it delivers fruit-forward depth with peach and vanilla, woven with herbal hints. A poised touch of allspice tempers sweetness, leaving a clean, floral lift and a long, refined finish.
Finish
Floral notes return on the finish, delicate and persistent, weaving through subtle orchard fruit and vanilla. A refined herbal lift and a gentle kiss of spice linger long on the palate.
