Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber with a warm caramel-gold sheen and burnished copper highlights.
Nose
Elegant, fruit-forward bouquet of dried plum, fig, and black cherry, with almond paste and vanilla-toffee. Sherried sweetness rests on cedar and leather, while a whisper of smoke lingers. Subtle spice—clove and nutmeg—adds poised, refined complexity.
Palate
Silky and refined on the palate, this 17-year-old Japanese single malt unveils delicate orchard fruit and honey, tempered by subtle oak. A whisper of spice coats the tongue, with citrus zest and almond notes emerging, concluding in a poised, lingering finish.
Finish
An extraordinarily long finish coats the palate with warm oak and a whisper of vanilla. Dried fruit sweetness mingles with soft spice—nutmeg and clove—before fading to cocoa and cedar notes. Elegant, serene persistence with a clean mineral edge lingers gracefully.
