πŸ“ Tasting Notes

πŸ‘ƒ Nose

Classic Speyside character with fresh orchard fruitsβ€”green apple and ripe pearβ€”alongside delicate honeysuckle and vanilla. A subtle tropical note of pineapple adds brightness to this approachable aromatic profile.

πŸ‘… Palate

Smooth and creamy with flavors of summer fruits, sweet malt, and vanilla cream. Light hints of almond and citrus provide balance to the honeyed sweetness, while gentle oak adds structure.

πŸ”₯ Finish

Medium length with a clean, slightly sweet fade featuring subtle vanilla and lingering fruit notes.

πŸ₯ƒ How to Enjoy

Recommended
πŸ₯ƒ
Neat

Pour at room temp in a Glencairn. Let it breathe 2–3 minutes before nosing β€” this unlocks the full aromatic profile.

πŸ’§
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.

πŸ’‘ Older expressions (15+ years) and peated malts are best neat or with a single drop of still water.
