Nose
Inviting, floral honeysuckle and dessert pears, with a slight lemon zest sourness and a touch of peppery nip. Hints of smoke, sweet malt, and subtle peatiness.
Palate
Lovely, slightly musty sweetness, quite grain forward with notes of Crunchy Nut Cornflakes. Sweet and nutty profile, accented by malt and spice, smooth with a medium body.
Finish
Medium in length, ending in notes of spice and a pleasant warmth. Lingering smoky old maltiness.
