The first thing the tasting panel noticed about this whisky was the fresh, fruity nose that immediately caught our attention, and it will do the same for you too. The palate develops an earthy note and also features sweeter notes, such as almond and blueberry. Light fruity notes accompany the finish of this good bourbon cask-style whisky.

nose : Blooming heather and distant bonfire smoke. Soft notes of barley sugar and freshly baked bread are brightened with hints of lemon zest and green apple peel, underpinned by delicate florals. Peat smoke is present but restrained.
palate : A symphony of honeyed malt, toasted grain and a distinctive earthiness greet the palate. Orchard fruits, citrus and a touch of vanilla sweetness follow, whilst delicate threads of smoke and salinity weave through the malt, providing a gentle counterpoint to heather and coconutty gorse.
finish : A medium-length finish of sweet barley, accompanied by subtle floral notes, which give way to the gentle smokiness of a beach bonfire. Citrus and a touch of minerality linger on.
Nose: Aromas of ripe fruit, vanilla and cinnamon. Mouth: An unctuous texture with notes of honey, cereals and spices. Finish: A long, warm finish, marked by hints of oak and dried fruit.
