Tasting Notes
February 16, 2026
Nose
The whisky presents a dark and intense character with prominent notes of campfire coffee, dried fruit, and roasted nuts complemented by chocolate.
Palate
Rich bourbon-influenced flavours of maple syrup, star anise, and treacle develop into creamy mocha notes, with hints of ground ginger, orange peel, and browned butter alongside savoury elements of bacon and oily fries.
Finish
The finish reveals concentrated dried fruit character of figs, dates, and plums balanced by lighter, more delicate notes reminiscent of panettone and Austrian chocolate liqueur.
