Nose
Very delicate and fragrant. Wild rose, honeysuckle. Hint of mint. Marshmallow. Earth and grass after summer rain. A spring walk in the country.
Palate
Appetising, rich, fresh. Smooth to begin with. Blossoms with an array of spices. Candied ginger. Mint, liquorice. Vanilla cookies.
Finish
Satisfying, lingering and luscious. Ends on an almond milk note.
Comment
Rich, bonnie and complex. Not showing off, just beaming.

Sweet, light and perfumed: dried flowers, lemon, soft fruits, hazelnut and syrup. Reminiscent somehow of crunchy nut cornflakes.
Palate
Still floral and attractive. There’s a hint of lemon meringue pie in the middle, and all very light, sweet and fragrant.
Finish
A little short, but you don’t want this style of malt to last forever.
Comment
A lovely sweet, frothy, summery dram.
