OFFICIAL TASTING NOTES
Nose: On the nose, this single malt whisky presents an inviting and complex aroma of sweet peat-smoke. The subtle smokiness is balanced by delicate notes of fruitiness, with a pleasant hint of white peach and a refreshing citrus tang.
Palate: A delightful array of flavours. The peat is well balance and perfectly complemented by the sweet and fruity notes of white peach and citrus. The palate is further enriched with the complex flavours of dried and candied fruits from the Tawny casks.
Finish: The long and lingering finish of this whisky is a true delight. As the flavours of the palate begin to fade, the oak spiciness emerges, adding a warm and comforting note to the overall taste. The finish is smooth and elegant, with a perfect balance of sweetness and spiciness.
