🎨 Flavor Profile
📝 Tasting Notes
Delicate aromas of wildflower honey and orchard fruits—ripe apple and pear—greet the nose, interwoven with vanilla cream and gentle herbal notes of heather. A subtle whisper of citrus peel and toasted malt adds complexity to this soft, approachable bouquet.
The palate is smooth and rounded, delivering honeyed sweetness balanced by creamy vanilla and a medley of red apples, apricot, and hazelnut. Gentle malt character provides structure while soft herbal and oak spices add depth without overwhelming the fruit-forward profile.
Medium length with lingering honey sweetness, a gentle warming spice, and traces of vanilla and dried fruit that fade gracefully.
🥃 How to Enjoy
Pour at room temp in a Glencairn. Let it breathe 2–3 minutes before nosing — this unlocks the full aromatic profile.
A few drops cut through cask-strength alcohol and release esters. Start with one drop and taste as you go.
Fine for lighter, fruitier expressions. Cold can mute the complexity in heavily peated or well-aged malts.
