Tasting notes
Sweet green apple and pear
complement creamy dark honey.
Soft vanilla develops alongside
gentle smoke. Smooth flavours of malted cereal
and stewed fruit combine with warm
toffee and a hint of black cherry. Full bodied finish with malted cereal persevering and lingering soft smoke. 92 Points, Whisky Advocate "This expression was distilled from malt peated to 12 to 14 ppm, and aged in 80% bourbon and 20% sherry casks before a final year in more sherry casks. Sweet smoke on the early nose, with malt, vanilla, quite dry sherry, apple, and toffee. Smoky barley, vanilla, subtle sherry, and light honey on the palate. Peaches, ginger, and woodsmoke on the medium-length finish. Very accomplished. ”
91 Points, Wine Enthusiast "This copper-hued whiskey offers concentrated caramel, pecan pie and oak aromas. The palate is oaky and drying, not as luscious as the aroma suggests, showing vanilla and spice, plus hints of baked apple and cocoa. Adding water brings out more nutty flavor and a whiff of smoke.”
