Expressive, distinctive, appetising. Orange, apricot, anis.
Palate
Apricot jam on buttered toast.
Finish
Orange juice with a shot of Pernod.
Comment
I think I have discovered a breakfast whisky. They can call it Dallas Dhu. I'll dub it "Death in the Morning. "

Nose
Big, creamy and sweet. Plenty of fruit, cocoa, butterscotch, honey and oak. Complex.
Palate
Medium weight but mouthfilling with a punchy, rich middle palate. Sweet, ripe toffee fruits: sultana cake, cinnamon, apple, butterscotch, spicy. Real drive.
Finish
Long, complex, sweet.
Comment
An elegant, sophisticated malt. On this evidence, a real loss to the industry.
