Nose: Like a relaxed orchard on a summer day, the nose offers wildflowers, fresh pears, crisp apples, honey and hay. There's an earthiness too, which grounds things nicely.
Palate: Smooth and creamy, like shea butter and beeswax. There's more honey here, plus milk chocolate, vanilla custard over apple crumble, and hints of raspberries. The body is breezily light without feeling flimsy.
Finish: Long and surprisingly warming after the gentle palate - soft chilli comes through to liven things up slightly.
Overall: A relaxed Singleton of Dufftown expression – a delightfully mellow dram best paired with excellent friends and wonderful conversation.
