Honey, malt, cherry, almond, red fruits, subtle spice. Peat is very reserved. Round mouthfeel. Additional flavors of beeswax and toffee. Medium finish.

Nose is apple, fresh and light. In the mouth very light and jovial as well. Fruity and then lightly bitter on the finale. Very feminin and elegant.

After not being able to find the 12yr for the last year I found 3 bottles sitting on an grocery store shelf. It tastes as good as ever

Clean, smooth. Lightly peated. Delicious, easy drinking whiskey.
