Nose

Big, fruity, with a green and floral undertone. Tinned peaches, fresh sheets and lilies, not to mention wood varnish, acetone and nutmeg.

Palate

Warming, with a plasticky mouthfeel – water makes this silky. Big, with fleshy stone fruit before a bitterness comes in akin to sucking on a nectarine pit. Charred orange peel, cinnamon and dried chilli flakes in the back.

Finish

Charred bitter citrus pith and warming chilli spice linger on.

Comment

Not a whisky that sits on the fence. Powerful, fruity, and pretty great.
