📝 Tasting Notes

👃 Nose

Elegant and fruit-forward with aromas of ripe peach, apricot, and pineapple complemented by honeyed malt and delicate Mizunara oak spice. Vanilla custard, candied orange peel, coconut, and subtle cinnamon create a lush, inviting bouquet.

👅 Palate

Soft and smooth with flavors of tropical fruit, honey, and butterscotch alongside sweet malt and gentle oak influence. Notes of banana, dried apricot, toffee, and white pepper provide complexity with a creamy, mouth-coating texture.

🔥 Finish

Medium-length finish with lingering fruit sweetness, vanilla, oak spice, and a gentle warmth that fades with hints of coconut and candied ginger.

🥃 How to Enjoy

Recommended
🥃
Neat

Best for complex single malts and aged expressions. Room temperature in a tulip or Glencairn glass.

🧊
On the Rocks

Works well with lighter blended whiskeys. Use one large ice cube to keep dilution slow and controlled.

💧
A Touch of Water

Opens up the aromatics on cask-strength bottlings. One small drop at a time — you can always add more.
