:Nose: Upon first nosing, the enticing aroma of orchard fruits comes to the forefront, with ripe apples and pears making a delightful appearance. Subtle hints of honey and vanilla follow, enveloped by the warm embrace of spicy oak. As you continue to explore the nose, you'll discover delicate floral undertones and a whiff of zesty citrus, adding depth to the overall experience.
Palate: On the palate, this whiskey is a veritable symphony of flavors. The initial burst of creamy caramel and honey is perfectly balanced by the robust presence of spicy black pepper and clove. As the whiskey opens up, you'll be treated to a medley of ripe orchard fruits, dark chocolate, and toasted oak, rounded out by a subtle nuttiness that speaks to the whiskey's sherry and Malaga cask influence.
Finish: The finish is a lingering and satisfying journey, with the warmth of spicy oak and a touch of pepper gradually giving way to the sweetness of honey, vanilla, and dried fruits. A final whisper of marzipan and soft leather leaves a lasting impression, inviting you to savor the experience and explore another sip
