Tasting Notes
The whisky presents glacé cherries and crispy seaweed alongside charred lemons and honeyed crumpets, with a subtle madeira cake backdrop.
It reveals a sweet soy sauce character blended with crushed green grapes and a hint of akvavit. Upon dilution, peaches and lime emerge with perfumed floral notes, overnight oats, and brined olive complexity, creating a silky texture.
The finish combines salty and fruity maritime notes with peaches, lime, and banana, delivering a balanced and multi-layered conclusion.
