BOILED SWEETS AND GRAPEFRUIT PEEL

This a 9 year old Orcadian matured in a Refill Barrel and bottled at 56.2%.

Panel's Tasting Note: "Bubble-gum and vanilla sponge, with boiled sweets (pear drops and lemon sherbets); apple & elder flower cordial, white wine jelly; after a while a light soapiness. Fresh and clean overall. The taste is sweet, sharp and hot - grapefruit and lemon peel; powdery, with a pinch of salt. The scent of grapefruit skins increases at reduced strength, and the other aromas remain intact - vanilla, lemon sherbets, pear drops, washing powder. The taste is now sweeter and more salty, with light acidity and an aftertaste of lemon bon-bons. A fresh young aperitif from Orkney's second distillery."

Drinking Tip: "A springtime apertif."
