Tasting Notes
"This whisky is quite the hidden gem in Diageo's Malt Whisky Collection. The whisky is filled with heather, honey, nuts, and pears. Delicate smoke comes in on the palate along with dried cherry and more honeyed nuts. It is a shame that this whisky doesn't get heralded more than it does, but then again, maybe it's okay to keep this one a secret."
