The aromas are complex and deep. Layers of sweet almond frangipane, figs, blackberry and ocean spice. This is followed by toasted oak and salted honeycomb. The complexity develops further on the palate, soft exotic fruits like papaya and mango are mingled with cherry. Mellow oak and yellow plum compliment the previous. The finish is soft yet lingering, with notes of caramelized pear, pineapple and pomegranate interlaced with almond and refined oak.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with coppery highlights and a caramel-bronze glow.
Nose
Complex and deep, the nose unfolds layers of sweet almond frangipane with figs and blackberry, carried by ocean spice. Toasted oak and salted honeycomb rise, weaving a coastal, refined aroma that hints at the whisky’s remarkable fifty-year maturity.
Palate
On the palate, soft exotic fruits—papaya and mango—merge with cherry as mellow oak and yellow plum provide structure. Almond notes echo through the mid-palate, with salted honeycomb and subtle tropical hints enriching the sweetness, while caramelized pear, pineapple and pomegranate linger with refined oak.
Finish
Soft yet lingering, the finish unfolds with caramelized pear, pineapple and pomegranate, interlaced by almond and refined oak. A warm, delicate sweetness remains, leaving a subtle orchard-spice impression that carries through the palate long after the final sip.
