Tasting Notes
"Only a touch peaty on the nose and opens to delicate fruit of peaches and pineapple, plus vanilla-scented tobacco. The whisky coats with a rich mouthfeel and balanced sweet vanilla, buttery pastry, and stone fruit, like an apricot tart. Finish is bright and malty with vanilla bean, peaches & cream, raspberry, and sweet cigar."
