Nose
Very shy to start, but slowly showing its true colors. Stewes apples, apple sauce with a hint of cinnamon, honey, tinned pineapple. Faint notes of wet grass, but also some fudge and vanilla.
Taste
Creamy and smooth. Golden syrup. A nice array of fruits and spices. Cloves, white pepper, grapes, pears, plums and berries. Some almonds too.
Finish
Bitter oranges and mild spices. Long.
Comments
Good whisky, but not very inspiring or unique. Certainly nowhere near the quality of most sherried Glenrothes.
