Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose Creamy, with lots of berry fruits. Notes of strawberry jam on Greek yoghurt. Some peppermint, some stewed plums.

Palate Herbal and creamy, lots of stewed fruits, some apple strudel. Wine-finished whisky notes, dare we say. Some oily peat smoke, some coal tar, and hints of peppermint.

Finish Peppery and fruity, grist and smoke. Good chili warmth.
