Evan’s Tasting Note
Nose: Old pennies, Salt and soot with orange rind, grilled pineapple, apple cider, soy sauce, black pepper, and light barbecue sauce.
Palate: Oily and salty peanuts, tapioca pudding with raisins, slightly burnt marshmallows, honeydew melon, tinned peach slices, lychee, and shortbread.
Finish: The salt and soot exit the stage and leave the fruit and confectionary notes for the encore.
Comment: A fun dram that shows exactly what Glen Scotia is all about, and why we should be paying more attention to their range.

Nose: fresh, fruity and caramelized; brandy-soaked cherries and jujubes; honeycomb, vanilla and lemon drops.
Palate: very soft, honeyed and fruity; more jujubes, lemon drops, brandy-soaked cherries and honeycomb again; building spices and a touch of leather with musty oak; some mango and melon.
Finish: light, floral and minty with fading spices.
