Nose: Syrupy, hints of playdough that open up to reveal fragrant cereal and violet petals. Creamy and peppery but also slightly sharp.
Palate: Again there's this fragrant interplay with fruit skins, florals and malt, becoming thick and almost soapy at the end.
Finish: Light oak notes, Madeira wine, white and dark chocolate.
Overall: An interesting whisky from a closed distillery that shows moments of brilliance, still recognisable to those familiar with the Flora and Fauna bottling.
