Nose: Super malty, with fresh barley jumping straight from the glass. Baked apple notes, Custard Cream biscuits, subtle pepper, magnolia flowers, chewy red fruits. Ginger cake and green banana, too.
Palate: Really lively with zesty orange juice and hot cinnamon springing out first. Then there's cooked apple, almond, coconut and menthol whispers.
Finish: Quite gentle. It's all about apple strudels, with a distant wisp of smoke.
Overall: A lively single malt – if you like vibrant ex-bourbon whiskies, this is for you.
