“This whisky is seriously complex. Brilliant narrative and flow throughout. One's fullest attention will be doubly rewarded as it develops in the glass.

Time has not overloaded the spirit with oak; to the contrary, the fruit and anise elements of the distillery character are front and center.”

Sullivans Cove Sensory Team

Innovation & Tradition

Aged for seventeen years in an American oak cask crafted by the Australian family cooperage Barossa, this single malt is distinguished by its rich profile.

Oscillating between softness and firmness, its aroma and flavour palette unfolds fruity, honeyed, waxy, floral, tangy, and spicy notes reminiscent of a very old Lowland style.

This expression fully illustrates the distillery’s philosophy, remaining true to long-term maturation— often exceeding a decade—to allow each whisky to express its full complexity.

Tasting notes

Nose

Sometimes you just know that a whisky is a keeper as soon as the glass comes near the nose. A rich wave of pomegranate molasses opens the show, with the initial top note being the delightful, ultra fruity aroma. The bright top notes deepen into perfumed, waxy tropical florals and raspberry confection with a fresh minty note throughout. Extreme caramel fudge, with dates, fig syrup, roasting walnuts, and visions of every chocolate-coconut bar known to humankind flash before the eyes.

Palate

Beautiful entry. Slippery texture, and a full body. A fabulous structure and plays on both sides of the street of sweet-savoury. A strong foundation of biscuitty vanilla malt and sponge cake. Apricots, a hint of mint sauce and a tidal wave of anise and liquorice. Developing in time, is a stunning layer of ripe tropical fruit underneath the anise. Further development opens into a wonderful citrus bonanza.

Finish

Citrus takes the transition from palate through to finish, passing the baton onto raspberry jam which swells beautifully. Biscuitty malt appears again, followed by a distinctly grape note. Full circle to more citrus, and a lovely ride of fennel honey into the sunset.
