Nose

Bramble and apple crumble with toasted topping as if cooked in a wood fired oven. Dried sour cherry and lots of Autumnal fruits with water.

Palate

Toasted teacake and a fiery chilli and ginger heat. Prosciutto and mostarda di frutta. Herbal cardamom and mint chocolate develop with time.

Finish

Big and busty –a bear hug of a dram.

Comment

Classic and just what I would have expected from this distillery as well.
