Nose

Stunning: oak and hint of marzipan and cherries. The malt is sweet and multi-layered.

Palate

Initially light with sweet cereal notes and then the oak kicks in to add a drier dimension.

Finish

Toasty with hints of hickory and chocolate fudge. Quite long.

Comment

A substantial malt, which on the palate does not match the complexity of outstanding nose.
