Description
Aroma
The initial aroma offers a burst of fresh, sweet scents. Think ripe orchard fruits like crisp apples and pears, intertwined with a delightful honeyed sweetness. Heather, a flowering plant native to Scotland, adds a touch of earthy complexity, hinting at the whisky’s heritage. Subtle hints of vanilla and hazelnut peek through, creating an inviting and well-rounded nose.
Taste
The first sip delivers on the promise of the aroma. A wave of smooth, rich flavor washes over the palate, dominated by those Speyside orchard fruits. Juicy apples and pears mingle with a luscious honeyed sweetness that lingers on the tongue. As the whisky develops, subtle notes of vanilla and hazelnut emerge, adding a layer of creamy richness. Hints of butterscotch provide a touch of caramel sweetness, perfectly complementing the overall smoothness.
Finish
The finish is pleasantly long-lasting, leaving a warming sensation on the palate. The sweetness of honey and vanilla fades gently, allowing the earthy heather and a hint of oak from the maturation casks to linger. It’s a clean and satisfying conclusion to a delightful whisky experience.
