π¨ Flavor Profile
π Tasting Notes
Vibrant and expressive with fresh lime zest, crisp pear, and green apple from the French cuvée cask finish. Underlying bourbon cask character provides vanilla custard, sweet oak, and crème brûlée alongside subtle champagne-like effervescence.
Luscious and indulgent with pear tart, vanilla cream, and candied citrus peel. The cuvΓ©e cask influence brings elegant fruit complexity with notes of white peach, ginger snap cookies, and buttery oak creating a celebratory, dessert-like profile.
Medium-long with bright fruit notes fading to warm vanilla and gentle oak spice, leaving a sophisticated sweetness reminiscent of fine champagne.
π₯ How to Enjoy
Pour at room temp in a Glencairn. Let it breathe 2β3 minutes before nosing β 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.
