SOARING SWEETNESS AND OCEAN SPRAY

1 Year Orcadian matured in a 1st Fill Bourbon and bottled at a whopping 62.8%!

Panel's Tasting Note: "Dark scents beset us: date loaf with Pecan nuts, rum truffles, Jamaican ginger cake, fudge with raisins, and a waft of (unlit) menthol cigarettes. At natural strength the taste is sweet with a light bitterness like burnt toffee ('salt-water taffy' commented one), dark chocolate in the finish and Kendal mint-cake in the aftertaste. Water conjured a leather couch against a backdrop of dripping candles, Pecan pie, treacle tart and Caramac, with a smooth texture and a centre-palate taste, sweet overall, with hints of spice and camphor in the finish. The malt comes from the last distillery to be built in the 19th Century."

Drinking Tip: "A wonderfully restorative dram."
