🎨 Flavor Profile

HoneyedNuttyMaltyVanillaCitrusCreamy

📝 Tasting Notes

👃 Nose

Clean and elegant with prominent honeycomb and heather honey notes, complemented by toasted almonds and hazelnuts. Light citrus zest, vanilla custard, and fresh barley malt create an inviting, delicate bouquet.

👅 Palate

Smooth and creamy with a notable waxy texture, offering sweet malt, golden syrup, and vanilla bean. Subtle notes of green apple, light nuttiness, and a whisper of oak spice develop gracefully.

🔥 Finish

Medium length with gentle warming spice, lingering honey sweetness, and a clean, slightly nutty fade.

🥃 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.
