Tasting Notes
Billy Abbott, The Whisky Exchange
Nose
Sweet, floral and fruity, with meadow flowers, Dolly Mixtures, candied orange slices and a touch of gummi bear. Dried pineapple and mango hide under a layer of apple sauce.
Palate
The fruit continues into the palate, with spicy gingerbread piled high with apple and pear jam. A touch of leafy mint floats over the top, with a river of raisins and currants following. Wax polished oak sits under it all.
Finish
Caramel- and chocolate-dipped apple slices on a freshly cut oak board.
Comment
Layers of fruit, spice and chocolate make for a rich and complex dram that rewards exploration.
