Flavor Profile
Light & Delicate
The whisky presents toffee, coconut, and vanilla notes reminiscent of apple crumble with cinnamon spice, alongside floral rose garden scents, un-malted grains, and popcorn. With water, waxy textures emerge including oily lemon skins and furniture polish, followed by walnuts, hazelnuts, buttered hot cross buns, and marzipan.
The palate delivers spicy intensity balanced by honey, lavender, and tarragon, with stone fruits and grapefruit pith providing structure. Water softens the heat, revealing heather honey, soft fudge, fondant icing, and milk chocolate alongside toasted cereals.
Stone fruits and grapefruit pith dry the finish initially, which lengthens with water to include nut skins, toasted cereals, and subtle chocolate notes.
Toffee, coconut and vanilla coated apple crumble with cinnamon spice, as the sweet scents of a rose garden combined with un-malted grains and popcorn. The palate brought a spicy fury that was tamed by honey, lavender and tarragon, before stone fruits and grapefruit pith dried the finish. With a dash of water, aromas adopted waxy textures like oily lemon skins and furniture polish. Walnuts and hazelnuts then arrived with buttered hot crossed buns and marzipan. With the heat on the tongue now tempered, heather honey, soft fudge and fondant icing emerged alongside milk chocolate, toasted cereals and stone fruits with nut skins on the finish.
