Description

NOSE : A hint of (appetising) phenol. Polished oak.

PALATE : Robust exchange of sweetness and dryness. Juicy flavours from the oak. Vanilla, violets, sherry.

FINISH : Apricot. Prunes in Armagnac. Sappy.

COMMENT : A malt that dares to be truly oaky. Thank heavens for boldness and individuality in a world where blandness is always an easier option.
