Nose
Ready to be challenged by this unusual nose. A complex array of aromas, from fresh green apples and pears, to tropical fruits like mango and pineapple, and the smell of an iron railing on your hand – a metallic note that is not unpleasant. Behind all this, a hint of vanilla and oak.
Palate
The palate is gentle and again very complex, with notes of tropical fruits, vanilla, and oak. A hint of pepper and a touch of ginger. A whisky that is heavenly and very well balanced.
Finish
Long and lingering, with notes of tropical fruits, vanilla, and oak.
