Tasting Notes

"This whisky is loaded with honey so brush up on your bee attack survival skills; such as protecting your face while running into the wind. You’ll escape the bees and the wind will blow some of the mouth-watering Cipher aromas in your direction. Ginger, cinnamon and licorice spice lead into a palate crammed with orchard fruits such as pear. Caramel toffee and oak are shaved on top like expensive truffles at a French restaurant. More honey and spice blend into a nice finish that’s threaded with a tannic citrus-peel twist. An intricate addition to the Glenlivet."
