Tasting Notes
February 16, 2026
Nose
The whisky presents raisins and burnt ends soaked in clarified butter, joined by crushed barley and sugared almonds on the opening.
Palate
On the palate, grape juice and espresso meld over malt loaf, topped with black cherry jam and sweet cinnamon. Water reveals French toast in a cigar box, drizzled with sesame oil.
Finish
The finish delivers battenberg cake dunked in dark chocolate, accompanied by lemon sherbet sweeties.
