Tasting Notes

Delightfully waxy and oily textures on the nose coated rock salt, brown sugar and gentian liqueur. On the palate, however, we discovered progressive smoke that grew into spices, aniseed and thyme while vibrant plums and strawberries combined in smoked sherbet. Adding water expressed the aromas of salty sea air over an outdoor swimming pool as sugar-coated lemons and grapefruit joined shellfish, ships' ropes and ice cream cones. Floral flavours now embraced rosewater and violets alongside sweetened earl grey tea before pineapple joined marjoram and cloves on a pine sap-tinged finish. At eight years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
