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.
