"This is a grassy malt, which at 12 years also has a heightened citric spray of sweet orange zest and a gingery aspect (it’s great with ginger ale). Intense and vibrant with macadamia and a light heathery note, the palate confounds expectations, having a thick chewiness before the grass zings through, adding lift." Whisky Advocate 85pts.
Nose: Heady with resin and sweet honey-nut notes with some malt cereal and wood smoke. Palate: Soft, pleasing, medium bodied and well balanced with smooth mouthfeel, gentle sweet freshness, apple, pear, dried fruit, soft peat, then a pronounced drying effect. Try with little or no water. Finish: Some lingering sweet smoke and peat in the attractive, drying aftertaste. - Peat and Fruit -
