📝 Tasting Notes
Warm aromas of vanilla custard and toasted oak greet the nose, layered with hints of dried apricot, honey, and a subtle baking spice complexity. There's a gentle sweetness reminiscent of brown sugar and a whisper of cinnamon.
The palate delivers smooth caramel and vanilla notes interwoven with oak tannins and a touch of dried fruit. Medium-bodied with pleasant sweetness balanced by gentle rye spice and a hint of toasted grain.
The finish is medium in length with lingering oak, vanilla, and a gentle warming spice that fades gracefully.
🥃 How to Enjoy
Best for complex single malts and aged expressions. Room temperature in a tulip or Glencairn glass.
Works well with lighter blended whiskeys. Use one large ice cube to keep dilution slow and controlled.
Opens up the aromatics on cask-strength bottlings. One small drop at a time — you can always add more.
