“A rich, dark, and complex single cask, where bold cask influence meets a naturally full spirit. The interplay of savoury, fruity, and citrus elements is well-structured, with integrated tannin and oak. Every component stands confidently, yet harmoniously, making this a compelling, multi-dimensional whisky.”

TASTING NOTES

  • Nose

    Citrus-dense, with chocolate orange, blood orange, lemon, lime, candied fruit, Turkish delight, treacle, and warm bushland notes. Bold and juicy.

  • Palate

    Full-bodied, slightly waxy, evolving to preserved citrus with honeycomb, rum and raisin, orange-chocolates, marmalade, whipped caramel, sticky cherry and mint.

  • Finish

    Long, sweet, and layered: dark chocolate, roasted peaches, butterscotch, grapefruit, lime soda, caramelised banana and praline.
