A 23 year old Speysider from a refill hogshead at 49.5%

Flavour profile:  Sweet, fruity & mellow

Outturn:  226 bottles

Panel's tasting note: "Like well-aged Sauternes this complex whisky displays a nose of honey-covered toast, chocolate with dapples of coconut and strawberry. The taste delivered a decadent American breakfast; crispy bacon, pancakes and maple syrup. The addition of water created the notion of supper as scents of grilled pork chop were followed by Eton Mess for dessert.  Aromas of toasted cedar wood were interspersed with ginger. The palate offered the panel darkly roasted coffee, ginger cake and brown sugar coated peach all consumed within a draughtsman’s office. A decadent offering from this Elgin distillery."

Drinking Tip: "Cigar in hand and nose upturned"
