Nose

Delicate nose of sharp fruit (nectarine pits, yuzu), sweeter notes of liquorice and hazelnut paste and a sappy pine aroma hanging at the back.

Palate

Lovely creamy mouthfeel at first. A bed of vanilla that’s been scattered with grapefruit pith, yuzu, charred pineapple, sawdust and liquorice root.

Finish

Tingly and cooling, with eucalyptus coming into play.

Comment

A light whiskey overall, with two clear parts; first up rich and smooth, then cooling and zingy. I enjoy unexpected flavour developments like this.
