Nose

More concentrated. Citrus peels, overripe fruit, polished oak. Intense and exotic: rose petals, Turkish Delight, parma violet, nutmeg and cinnamon.

Palate

Tobacco notes, chocolate and coconut. Coffee, heather. A good back-palate whisky.

Finish

White pepper, crystalline ginger. Elegant.

Comment

Maturity, refined rather than OTT. Great to see distillery character retained at this age.
