Tasting Notes
Colour
Warm amber-gold with coppery highlights and a honeyed, sunset glow.
Nose
Subtle peat smoke entwines with roasted malt and espresso, creating a warm, toasted aroma. Sweet orange marmalade and creamy toffee unfold from the Moscatel cask, while vanilla and honey-kissed oak lend depth. A lifted note of raisin, citrus blossom, and a faint winey sweetness round out a dessert-like, elegant nose.
Palate
Silky and lightly peated, this whisky glides with creamy butter and honeyed sweetness. Orange marmalade and citrus zest unfold alongside espresso, dark chocolate and roasted malt notes from the Imperial Stout casks. A kiss of moscatel sweetness adds brightness and fruit, while subtle spice deepens the mid-palate, delivering a long, polished finish.
Finish
Silky and evolving, the finish carries a gentle peat whisper with espresso and dark cocoa from the Imperial Stout casks. Sweet orange marmalade lingers, brightened by citrus zest and a warm Moscatel glow. Subtle oak and roasted notes drift in, leaving a velvety, long finish that rises into a refined, lingering warmth.
