Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

an aromatic start, all on fruits and vanilla. Mostly papayas and guavas plus touches of honey and pollen. Extremely well balanced but pretty simple and easy-ish. Too perfect? It does hint at some much, much older Speysiders (Caperdonich or Benriach, for example) but the profile is obviously narrower here

restaurant Palate

very sweet but much less clean than on the nose. Vanilla, herbal teas, ginger and various green spices, touches of dates and quite some caramel. Slight sourness

timer Finish

short, on toasted cake and cane syrup. Sweetish aftertaste, a bit cloying
