Aroma: This is a rich, sweet, nutty whisky to the nose. The sweetness seems to come from crisp autumnal orchard fruits, which mingle with a creamy Panna Cotta like note. Then there is an underlying toasted nutty aroma, which is dry and warming.
Taste: Delicate, sweet floral honey dominates the start of this whisky. It is light and syrupy.
Then in the middle a minty spicy quality is revealed, which is still creamy and sweet.
Finally a nutmeg warmth builds and coats the mouth in a creamy, yet savoury flavour.
Appearance: Hay drying the summer sunshine.
Real Dram Factor: This is a super clean, easy going whisky. It has a rich, syrupy quality at the start, which gives way to a gentle, delicate spice. It is light in mouthfeel and has a relatively short finish. I can see this being the kind of whisky that you would open with the family at the start of Christmas and find the bottle has emptied itself before you ever see the New Year in!
