Tasting Notes
The whisky presents a rich bouquet of sweet sawdust, blackberry pie, toasted ciabatta, and orange oil-infused sugar. With water, additional notes of dalgona coffee, cherry pie filling, and wafer biscuits emerge.
It opens with muddled orange segments and almond paste, followed by blueberries and apple mint that develop across the mid-palate.
The finish is dominated by blackcurrant jam with melon notes, punctuated by pockets of evaporated milk and candied orange.
