  • Tasting Notes by Stuart P

    • Nose

      Clean and bright, with red-fruit notes come bursting out of the glass, with some extra sweetness – glazed fruit tarts.

    • Palate

      Soft, fruity mouthfeel, then some spicy clove appears along with a cherry-menthol note.

    • Finish

      The rich fruit lingers.

    • Comment

      Fruit salad in a glass, this benefits from some time in sherry cask that adds richness and body.

    Anonymous,

    Fruity and rich, this is a fine whisky. As I live in Japan, it is found here for around £25-£30, which is very reasonable. Even so, it's good enough that I'd happily pay £50 for it.
