- Nose
- Rich biscuity notes. Honey and toffee. Shoe polish. Greengage. Vanilla ice cream. A distant touch of wet cellar. Water releases lighter floral notes.
- Palate
- Lovely velvet feel. Rich, oily. Complex. Oak and age give a bold structure to the palate.
- Finish
- Spicy, dry. Slightly bitter. Like gentian root.
- Comment
- A dash of water is perfect. Skip the pudding and enjoy your dram with a shortbread.
