Tasting Notes

Nose

Clear minerality – chalk specifically – with vanilla ice cream and charred wood. Sharp pomelo and yuzu, plus a touch of fizzy chew bars.

Palate

That classic end to a meal: charcoal-sprinkled vanilla ice cream, followed by a petit fours of rocks. Yuzu and lemon water peep through on this chalky-textured whisky.

Finish

That subtle smoke keeps wafting around with the chalk.

Comment

Variation on a vanilla theme, this time with added smoke.
