Rich dried fruit opens with dark chocolate and cranberry, followed by toasted oak and a lightly nutty edge. The palate is creamy and full, with honeyed sweetness balanced by warm spice and firm wood structure. Fruit remains clear through the middle rather than turning heavy. The finish is smooth and lingering, leaving soft oak, honey, spice and dark fruit.

Bright citrus and honey open over gentle oak and soft vanilla. The palate is smooth and fruit-led, bringing orange and lemon into balance with raisin, warm spice and a lightly biscuity malt note. Madeira-cask sweetness adds richness without making the whisky heavy. The finish is clean and composed, leaving honey, citrus peel, dried fruit and measured oak.
