Description

Nose : Very aromatic, wafting up out of the glass with an easy grace, carrying a scent of sweet cookie spice, butter, and peppery wood in a balanced row.
Flavor : A silky texture, delivering sweet tobacco spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg and backed by that toasty, dry wood. Towards the end a trace of ash appears. Finish : Follows that tobacco note, leading into a long, warm wind-down and a sweet, spicy afterglow.

Official Distillery Notes…

Nose  : Rich and full of aroma with fresh fruit notes and a deep vanilla sweetness. Uniquely fragrant with a characteristic floral note that is accentuated through the addition of a little water.

Palate : Beautifully sweet, buttery vanilla and slightly spicy.

Finish : Long and lingering with a notable sweetness.
