Nose

Fragrant. Light fruits, fresh pear, creamy and zingy-ginger beer? There's smoke and a hint of green, sappy sticks.

Palate

It rolls nicely in the mouth. Elegant, with little spikes of flavour: nut, grass and flowers laid on top. Light and delicate. Soft, clean and quite floral.

Finish

It all zips into life at the end.

Comment

This remains a cracking dram. Shame the distillery is being bulldozed. No, make that a disgrace.
