🎨 Flavor Profile
📝 Tasting Notes
Supremely elegant with layers of sherry-soaked raisins, candied plum, and aged mizunara oak releasing sandalwood incense and aloe wood. Orange marmalade, cinnamon bark, and aged leather interweave with delicate jasmine and orchid notes.
Silken and extraordinarily balanced with tawny port-like richness, black cherry, and dates complemented by caramelized honey and exotic Japanese oak spices. Nuances of old books, tobacco leaf, and white pepper add contemplative complexity to the fruit-forward core.
Exceptionally long, refined finish with evolving notes of dried fruit, fragrant oak, gentle spice, and lingering floral sweetness that persists for minutes.
🥃 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.
