Nose
Floral (bluebell) some malty notes, lemon/tangerine marmalade, lychee. Oakier than the 12 Years Old. Palate
Slightly fizzy (orange spacedust) cinnamon balls, oddfellows. Some sweet nuttiness towards the finish. Good flow and softly textured. Finish
Oak, then candy floss. Comment
Firm, but with enough sweet notes to balance.
