Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Vibrant layers of green apple and fresh stone fruits open the way, that hearty ABV shows itself, but doesn't dominate, with buttered corn and rolled oats shining through in time.
Palate
Sweet layers of candy floss and nougat, juicy pear, prunes, and boiled apple candies. Robust, almost rum-like with slick butterscotch and bold, characterful oak, with a touch of polish beneath.
Finish
Creamy rice pudding and fiery spice balance one another, with burnt brown sugar, grilled banana, juicy, tropical fruit and a touch of peppercorn warmth.
