📝 Tasting Notes

👃 Nose

Bright orchard fruits lead with green apple and pear, complemented by delicate citrus zest and vanilla sweetness. Subtle floral notes of honeysuckle and a whisper of almond blossom add elegance.

👅 Palate

Smooth and approachable with creamy vanilla custard, fresh pear, and orange marmalade sweetness. A gentle maltiness carries hints of toffee and toasted almonds with a light, silky mouthfeel.

🔥 Finish

Medium length with lingering vanilla sweetness, soft fruit notes, and a touch of warming spice.

🥃 How to Enjoy

Recommended
🥃
Neat

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

💧
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.

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