📝 Tasting Notes
Delicate and sweetly fragrant with notes of wildflower honey, light malt, and vanilla bean. Subtle hints of white peach, pear, and a trace of mizunara oak add complexity to this refined, gentle expression.
Silky and approachable with honeyed sweetness and soft grain character dominating. The palate reveals flavors of vanilla cream, ripe orchard fruits, light caramel, and a touch of coconut with minimal oak influence.
Gentle and relatively brief with lingering honey sweetness, soft grain notes, and a clean, delicate fade.
🥃 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.
