Tasting Notes

"The nose is like a baking fruit tart, with notes of stewed pear, baked golden apple, marzipan, warm spices, and milk chocolate. The palate becomes considerably spicier, with candied ginger, cinnamon, and nutmeg playing off of toffee, pistachio butter, and vanilla. While these flavors might sound rich and heavy, the whisky is light and summery, with a fair amount of heat lasting into the fruity and spicy finish. "
