Andrew's Tasting Note

Nose: butter and eggs whipped with brown sugar; Dulce Leche, subtle leather, fresh sliced lemons, lightly perfumed French soap and dewy botanical gardens; soft, elegant and oaky; sea breeze on a warm day.

Palate: big, rich, creamy, maritime and toasty with building spices, leather, dark sugars and earthy tones; still buttery and sugary, a little like raw cookie dough, leather and tobacco develop with tart lemon and sour orange; coffee bean, slightly burnt raisins, licorice and treacle; Christmas cake and tobacco emerge with time.

Finish: long, warming and spicy; the treacle and licorice linger longest with some leather and tobacco.

Comment: Inchgower is typically a big, muscular malt, with Maritime hints owing to its coastal location; this one highlights those features with a touch of finesse.
