🎨 Flavor Profile

WaxyFruityMaritimeHoneySpicyCoastal

📝 Tasting Notes

👃 Nose

Distinctive waxy texture on the nose with coastal minerality, sea spray, and orchard fruits including green apple and pear. Honeycomb sweetness intertwines with lemon oil, white pepper, and subtle smoke creating a unique maritime Highland character.

👅 Palate

Medium-bodied with the signature waxy mouthfeel carrying flavors of citrus fruits, honey, and gentle brine. Layers of white pepper, dried herbs, and light peat smoke emerge alongside apple tart and vanilla, finishing with pronounced oiliness.

🔥 Finish

Long and satisfying with coastal salinity, fruity waxiness, and warming spice that lingers with distinctive character.

🥃 How to Enjoy

Recommended
🥃
Neat

Pour at room temp in a Glencairn. Let it breathe 2–3 minutes before nosing — this unlocks the full aromatic profile.

💧
A Drop of Water

A few drops cut through cask-strength alcohol and release esters. Start with one drop and taste as you go.

🧊
On the Rocks

Fine for lighter, fruitier expressions. Cold can mute the complexity in heavily peated or well-aged malts.

💡 Older expressions (15+ years) and peated malts are best neat or with a single drop of still water.
