Dried and tropical fruit alongside roasted nuts sounds appealing, though the palate leans quite sweet with caramel and chocolate. The hint of sea salt gives it a useful counterpoint; I’d be curious how much it shapes the overall balance.

The dried fruits and tropical fruits sit nicely alongside roasted nuts and a hint of sea salt. Dark chocolate and vanilla carry through the palate and finish, giving this a warm, rounded character.

Dried and tropical fruits with roasted nuts make for a rich-sounding mix, and dark chocolate with vanilla is right up my street. The notes give a clear sense of this 34-year-old malt’s character.
