Tasting Notes
Nose
Initially, the whisky presents a sweet and fruity aroma with notes of ripe juicy pears, blood orange, and thick-set honey. These initial scents gradually give way to toasted oak, dried red currants, and subtle wisps of bonfire smoke. Hence, the nose provides a complex and inviting introduction.
Palate
On the palate, the whisky reveals hints of subtle sweet smoke, candied walnuts, peaches in syrup, and delicate ginger spice. This 30-Year-Old blend, therefore, epitomizes elegance and sophistication. It delivers a refined tasting experience that is truly memorable.
Finish
The finish is long and enduring, marked by persistent sweet smoky notes. Consequently, it leaves a lasting impression that complements the overall tasting experience.
