An easy to drink warm up whisky with the main off-notes at the finish

Nose

Fresh summer fruits, citrus, menthol, hint of beeswax, honey, waxy, spices & pepper

Body

Very punchy & slightly spicy for a 48%, citrus, vanilla, the fruity sweetness lingers along with the spiciness

Finish

Long & dry finish, bittersweet with a bit of saltiness at the end
