Tasting Notes
"There are aromas of toasty barley, honey and red apple. It's almost creamy on the palate, with soft flavors of sweet orange, honey alongside spicy black pepper and clove. This whisky is light enough that it would be easy to go through a bottle quickly, so be sure to take the time to savor."
