Tasting Notes
"Interesting hints of applesauce, orange juice and muscat grapes, this is a proper fruity whisky. Although there is quite a lot of hazelnut paste as well. The palate is well-rounded and gentle. More classically sherried, with dried red fruits and milk chocolate. Somewhat herbaceous, giving it an extra layer of complexity."
