Nose
Soft honeys, pollens, sunflower seeds, light hessian. Classic old Speyside juice really. Some hints of varnish, various waxes and wood polish. These sharpen to more specific notes of melon, pineapple and orange peel with a little time. There's also a leafy freshness about it, some camphor and damp earthy notes with a wee hint of pipe tobacco. Very lovely.
Palate
Sooty honey, milk bottle sweeties, lemon oil, porridge and beeswax. A hint of lime leaf and pot pourri as well.
Finish
Medium length, leafy, menthol tobacco, juicy fruits, citrus rinds, soft waxes and a hint of wood spice.
