Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Dense and oily, with leathery old oak, bittersweet molasses, treacle, and vanilla cream. Stewed stone fruits and sweet balsamic notes rest beneath, backed by drying, barky spice and chewy toffee.
Palate
Robust notes of oily oak, treacle toffee, sticky dates and caramelised nuts, joined by burnt orange peels, honeycomb, and cacao.
Finish
Sticky ginger cake, warming notes of pepper and nutmeg, toasted vanilla, tannic layers of earthy tobacco and leather, and distant dark forest berries.
