SMWS 60.32

The whisky presents a fresh, clean character reminiscent of a recently cleaned home, with bright citrus and herbal notes that evoke the clarity of polished surfaces and open windows.

It delivers considerable heat and pungency with black pepper and chilli, followed by sweeter notes of caramel, vanilla layer cake, and lemon curd. Upon dilution, pickled manzano peppers with onion emerge alongside roasted strawberries with brown sugar and coriander.

The finish is initially prickly and dry with herbal complexity akin to chartreuse and vermouth, before resolving into a spicy-sweet conclusion featuring maple syrup, honey, caramel, and vanilla mint.
