Nose
Very elegant and precise aromas, with grassy and floral notes in a delightful Lowland style. Apples, pears, lemon zest, and a custardy note are present, along with a noticeable oak presence and a sprinkle of cinnamon atop creme brulee.
Palate
Balanced and rich flavors, with lemon zest, pear, apple, bitter herbage, clover honey, marzipan, and a hint of cinnamon and allspice.
Finish
Elegant and long-lasting, with a curl of tobacco, green apples, and pears, leading to a bracing and remarkably smooth aftertaste.
