Nose: Spicy and savory, with notes of Marmite, burnt toast, endive, charcoal and coffee. The herbaceous Ardbeg top note is very present, and is complemented by aromas of smoke and molasses.
Mouth: The spicy mouthfeel gives way to a host of rich, smoky flavors of cocoa powder, dark chocolate, caramelized peanuts and smoky lime, with a hint of soot and embers. Anise and malted cookie come to the fore.
Sister Spirit stills enhance and refine the wonderful flavors captured during the long fermentation period, thanks to extra contact with copper. Matured in a selection of Bourbon casks, wine barrels and Sherry casks.
Nose : Crisp orchard fruits, green pear, apple skin, vanilla cream, and fresh-cut grass. Hints of citrus zest and soft malt biscuits emerge with air.
Palate : Bright, clean, and lively. Notes of lemon peel, sweet malt, soft honey, white grapes, and light floral tones. A touch of white pepper and oak spice adds complexity, while the youthful vibrancy remains intact.
Finish : Medium-long with lingering citrus, soft herbal notes, and gentle sweetness. Light, fresh, and beautifully Speyside.
