Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
bright straw
air Nose
sweet and juicy with many orchard fruits, stewed apples drizzled with custard, young sweet wines, barley sugars and wee touches of herbal jellies and ointments. Also some drier things like tobacco leaf and sunflower oil. Pitch perfect, modern Glen Moray. With water: slightly drier and more subtle, some dried sage, water crackers and oatcakes spread with butter. Also heather flowers and modern IPA
restaurant Palate
the sweetness is pretty upfront along with all these wee spicy tones, however I wouldn’t say the cask has dominated or been too brutal. It rather gives the impression of very good quality wood speaking clearly with the distillate. Some notes of banana syrup, pollen, vanilla cake and pineapple. With water: lime, putty, sweet cereals, sun cream, rapeseed oil, bitter lemon and tonic water
timer Finish
good length and super fresh. Lots of sweet barley, natural vanilla, cloves, malt extract and pumpkin seed oil
