A distinctly floral and fragrant nose combining fudge, coffee and waxed lemon. The palate shows some really syrup and marmalade character but it retains its balance with some savoury, herby notes. Very highly regarded and consistent.

Great whiskey with leek and potato soup with sourdough croutons.
