Tasting Notes

Nose
G&M: Sweet and savoury: dry-cured meats glazed with luscious apricot jam combines with rich vanilla notes. Flashes of softly swirling peat smoke complement the delicious sweetness.

WSD:   Sweet icing sugar and burning newspaper covered in cream.  Lightly smoked cheese and vanilla then comes through.

Taste
G&M: Bursting with juicy tropical fruit - pineapple, kiwi, and banana - brushed softly with icing sugar. Light touches of malt and vibrant lemon peel balance the sweetness.

WSD:  Soft and light for a Caol Ila but still with vanilla, icing and sweet peat.  Lots of tropical fruit. Smoked ash.

Finish
G&M: Long and luxurious with hints of sweet marshmallow toasting over gently smouldering bonfire embers.

WSD:  Still lots of ash coming through but creamy and well balanced.
