This limited release was bottled at cask strength, maintaining its soft and fruity character.

Tasting Notes
Nose
Cloves and orange open the nose, with rose petals, toasted oak and a biting peat smoke. Ripe peach and hints of apricot emerge.
Palate
There is a velvet touch that releases a little heat before moving into a subtle dryness from the French oak. Fruit and smoke combine beautifully with tar and peach, poached pear and red apples.
Finish
There is a tender softness; a lovely mix of soft peach and peat smoke. The Marsala edge is sweet fruit and a delicious Christmas cake whisper, the smoke fades and the toasted oak leaves a nutty vanilla that is satisfyingly warm.
