Tasting Notes

NOSE: The aroma is rich and inviting, featuring notes of dark brown sugar, molasses, sultanas, raisins, figs, and cherries. Citrus elements like orange peel, along with caramel, vanilla, chocolate, and barley sugar, add complexity. Spices such as cinnamon and cloves, with a hint of anise, contribute to its depth. The nose is moist and earthy, with no significant off notes. Water enhances the fruitiness and reduces any minor off notes.

TASTE: The palate is very sweet and creamy, with prominent notes of dark brown sugar (Demerara sugar), caramel, and honey. Dried dark fruits, including pears and plums, are present, along with dark chocolate, cinnamon, cloves, and a touch of black pepper. Leather notes add further complexity. Despite its high ABV, the whisky is approachable neat, and water amplifies the creaminess and fruitiness.

FINISH: The finish is medium-long, with dark fruit notes initially, followed by a strong mint cooling sensation (reminiscent of Vicks VapoRub). The end is slightly drying but not unpleasant. Water has minimal effect on the finish.
