Nose

Rich and rounded with clean malty notes. Chocolate, caramelised banana, some citric notes, orange pulp, toffee and spice.

Palate

The chocolate comes back giving a sweet, balanced dram. Good mature malt character.

Finish

Chocolate, coffee and orange peel.

Comment

Good balance with the rum at no point overwhelming the whisky. American readers will have to smuggle it into the country along with their Cohibas.
