Tasting Notes
"Some sweet aromas hit first with praline, caramel, and toasted marshmallows but the nose also reveals some quintessential Lowlands fragrances such as orange blossom. The sherry finish brings to this overall sweetness of the grain a more nutty and dried background. The expression flows on the palate with masses of dried fruits, walnuts, oak tannins and sweet spices. Overall, a light but still vibrant dram with a finish on roasted almonds. Definitely smoother and easier to drink with a dash of water."
