Tasting Notes
"The aroma is filled with dark tea and fresh fruit such as orange and apricot, though the intensity is low. What came to mind as the whisky was tasted was a salted caramel apple dusted with crushed walnuts. The length on the finish is satisfying and what you should expect with a 20+ year old whisky. "
