Andrew's Tasting Note

Nose: butterscotch pudding and butter tarts; banana bread with walnuts and a side of treacle and silky molasses; a touch earthy and musty with Glosset Raisins; marmalade and mixed berry jams. 

Palate: silky and nutty; firm but smooth leather and loads of exotic fruits; still jammy: mixed red berries, blueberry and blackcurrant; chocolate covered espresso beans and Glosset Raisins; Dominican cigars and grilled blue cheese stuffed figs wrapped in prosciutto; Demerara sugars and a touch of salty Dutch licorice; late spices.

Finish: long, drying and leathery, loads of sugar, fruit, chocolate and gentle spice.

Comment: no ifs, ands or buts, this is a beautiful, elegant and tasty single grain.
