Overall
Score
8.6
Nose
Woodsmoke, fried salmon skin, pear drop and linseed oil. Almond cake, lemon syrup, crème patissiere and delicate grass notes. Gentle florals of calendula and chamomile, with some delicate eucalyptus, aloe and menthol notes. ‘Dunnage aromas’, too.
Palate
Medium-light. Concentrated flavour of smoked orchard fruits, with sweet-and-sour. Delicate mossiness. Green banana and some creaminess, too.
Finish
Delicately drying, the pear drop and delicate smoke lingers.
Comment
Beautifully old-school Speyside.
