Tasting Notes

"The aroma is of medium intensity with toasted malt notes, cinnamon, Granny Smith apples, and a dollop of honey. As you taste, the single malt is moderately full with a sweet tart flavor profile. The tartness and the spiciness found on the palate help to cut the dram from being overly sweet. In fact, there's a little bitter note there too. Overall, a pleasant experience with a decent proof makes this a good one to have for an after-dinner dram. Serve with a slice of cake if you like, but you would also do well to pair this with a cheese like Taleggio or Manchego."
