Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with warm honeyed hues and a sunlit glow.
Nose
Creamy, cake-like aroma of Jamaican ginger cake, with bright aniseed and white pepper; smooth barley sweetness underneath lends a soft, inviting fragrance.
Palate
On the palate it unfurls as a gentle giant: creamy, clean barley at first, then peat and white pepper build slowly, never overpowering. The mid-palate delivers subtle sweetness before a soft, lightly peppered finish lingers.
Finish
Soft, lingering finish with a light peppering that gently lingers, underscored by a subtle peat whisper and a clean, refined warmth.
