Tasting Notes
Nose
Opens with an intricate medley of nectarines, ripe melon, green apple and apricot, supported by pot-still spices—freshly peeled ginger and crushed peppercorns. Aged grain offers perfumed dried flowers and golden syrup, while the oak steps forward with vanilla, honeycomb sweetness and a trace of freshly roasted coffee beans.
Palate
Luscious at first with succulent fruits and a distinctive creaminess along with a herbal quality akin to camomile tea. The pot still spices add depth and intrigue as they weave amongst the floral grain qualities found lingering throughout. The charred oak’s influence continues to build over time creating additional complexity as the wood-derived spices complement the ever-present fruits of candied orange and dried apricot.
Finish
The fruits and pot still spices build to a crescendo before giving way, leaving the final say to the oak tannins and antique grain whiskey.
