ANGELS' TEARS

This 15 year old from Speyside was matured in a 2nd fill barrel and is 56.5%.

Flavour profile:  Juicy, oak & vanilla.

Outturn:  203 bottles.

Panel's tasting note:  "At the start, the nose delivers orange fondant, orange coconut ice, apricot Danish and roasted peaches – gradually a floral note emerges – maybe a flower vase on a watchmaker’s workbench. The palate has a delightful soft, viscous texture and flavours of golden syrup, sweet coconut cream and pink wafers – so warming it’s almost salty – like angels’ tears. With water the nose finds chocolate tea cakes and sweetie tobacco (sugar coated chocolate flavoured coconut strips). The palate is pure expanding joy – filling the mouth with warm spice and sweetness – spiced plum crumble, cinnamon gum, hot cross – a nippy tease tantalises the finish."
