"Intense citrus leads the way, with vanilla custard close behind. A touch of banana adds to the complexity, while a hint of candle wax puts weight behind it. Nutty, honey flavours and a mouthwatering creamy texture on the palate. A signature salty tang on the finish."
90.5 points Jim Murray's Whisky Bible
"A dramatic whisky which, with further care, could get even closer to the truth of this distillery."

Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with a warm honey glow and a subtle coppery shimmer.
Nose
Intense citrus bursts from the glass, with vanilla custard close behind. A banana nuance weaves through the aroma, while a faint candle-wax note adds subtle weight and complexity.
Palate
On the palate, bright citrus leads, with vanilla custard and a hint of banana. A waxy, creamy texture carries nutty honey notes, while a subtle saline lift lingers, giving the palate a refined coastal polish.
Finish
A signature salty tang lingers long on the finish, brightened by citrus zest and vanilla custard. Subtle banana notes fade into a creamy, nutty honey glow that persists with a luxurious, tactile warmth.
