88 / 100
There’s a pleasing contrast between the honey and honeycomb sweetness and the slight salt-edged barley; that gives the palate more shape than sweetness alone. Fruitcake and caramel pudding make the nose sound soft and inviting, while the finish brings honey, barley and vanilla together and is described as immensely long. This reads as a sweet-leaning malt with enough savoury edge to keep it interesting.
