A CARAVANSERI ON THE SILK ROAD:

This 26 year old bottled at just 41% from a Refill Butt.

Panel's Tasting Note: "The nose was exotic and intriguing; 'like a Marrakesh spice market!' someone said; we also got sherbet, vanilla, golden syrup, banoffee pie, crème brulée and traces of leather. The unreduced taste had Turkish Delight, baclava, coffee, perfumed sweets and sherbet lemons – a theme was emerging – we imagined a caravanserai on the Silk Road. The reduced nose seemed lighter, more floral, with elusive perfumes – as the belly dancers departed the stage?! Adding a drop of water (though it surely needed none) we found spicy Oddfellows sweets, dry perfume and a nutty, woody, lip-sucking after-taste. The distillery is named after the county. Whisky pictured at right is a sample image."

Drinking Tip: "When dusk deepens and the promise of the night tingles the senses."
