Tasting Notes
"A vegetal, malty, and slightly smoky nose with herbal honey starts you off. This continues with floral notes, cinnamon bark, caramel fudge, and also fruity aromas of cooked red berries. The palate is warm, elegant and well balanced, showing an oily, smooth texture where the smoky profile never overpowers the more subtle aromas of cinnamon rolls, sweet spices, citrus, and summer berries. That's a big "hell yeah" for this dram, and if the flames of Hell taste anywhere near this dram, you should be queuing to book a space! A beautiful port-matured whisky."
