Dark gold. Intense and vanilla sweet. Floral, hints of banana, figs, rich toffee, new leather and oak. The palate is initially soft, then brisk, vibrant and drying, peppery, a touch of smoke, oak, lime, ginger and spices. The finish is very long, warming, dry and spicy. Producer Description.

The Wine Enthusiast writes: Finished in rum casks, the honey and orange zest aromas suggest a cocktail, not a straight pour of Scotch. These flavors are echoed on the silky palate, opening w/cocoa and leather and evolving into a luscious, fudge-like. 97 Points Wine Enthusiast.

The Wine Enthusiast writes: The succulent aroma develops with aeration in the sweet forms of barley....and a trace of tropical fruit. Palate entry is round, borderline plump, breakfast-cereal sweet, and honeyed; at midpalate, there's a slightly oily peat smoke. 95 Points WIne Enthusiast.

Flavors of heather honey, dried fruit, warm spice and salty sea smoke. A sultry finish of brown sugar and toasted nuts, with a hint of smoke. Producer Description.
