Distiller’s Notes:
- Nose: Light, floral, forest berries, gooseberries through the headiness of the higher alcohol.
- Palate: Unexpectedly smooth and mellow. Sweet and spicy with traces of lychees, apple skin and cracked black pepper sitting over biscuity malts.
- Finish: Lingering, warming, sweet and a comforting, spicy tail.
