Lush and intriguingly aromatic, with almonds, raisins, red plum and strawberry layered over oak, cocoa and fresh floral notes. The palate is creamy and full, balancing chocolate, nuts and wafer biscuit with a saline edge, lemon brightness and restrained spice. Espresso and soft tannin add depth without making the whisky heavy. The finish turns fresher, carrying mint, grape, tangerine and lingering dark chocolate.
