“Throughout this whisky, a golden thread of biscuity richness and custard-like sweetness ties together all elements of the aromatic and flavour journey. A wonderfully interesting narrative more akin to a series of vibrant bursts, rather than a linear progression. A celebration of complexity and balance, offering both depth and playfulness in each sip.”

TASTING NOTES
-
Nose
The whisky welcomes with a soft, pillowy and creamy texture. Vibrant aromas abound, with a foundation of vanilla, warm pastry, and buttery shortbread mingling seamlessly with biscuity notes. Mid-notes reveal fruity confections and hints of lemon-lime bitters, while vibrant top notes bring citrus zest, jasmine green tea, and lemon sherbet. A backdrop of cantaloupe and beautiful fresh floral essences emerge; our spirits signature citrus elements prominently on display here on the nose.
-
Palate
Transitioning from nose to palate, there's a brief pause. Then, a thick, indulgent body emerges, offering layers of flavour; green tea and the nostalgic sweetness of Minties lead into a playful medley of mango milkshake and exotic dragon fruit. The subtle spice of black pepper meets the crispness of wafers, while cherries, honeyed sweetness, and the creaminess of condensed milk add depth and complexity.
-
Finish
The finish is satisfyingly robust, with earthy hints of cherry pits and a touch of nutmeg. An indulgent, creamy decadence lingers (like a mango ice cream bar and velvety vanilla custard) accompanied by tangy lemon tart, mandarin oranges, and freshly squeezed orange juice. A final flourish of white chocolate adds a decadent touch to the enduring, full-bodied structure.
