Tasting Notes

This bottle is limited to 2 per memer

The nose neat was like the treasure we could find from a pirate’s map, so many hints - but would we succeed? Aromas of Greek yogurt with honey, fresh strawberries and granola, perfumed pear, anise-scented wood and ginger tea confused us. Let’s have a sip and find the final clue – sweet, syrupy, creamy vanilla, orange essential oil, lightly nutty, a little new leather and fresh mint chocolate chip cookies in the finish. Maybe a tiny drop of water would solve the riddle, but a fresh sweet fruitiness led us astray - strawberry topping served over cheesecake while on the palate, we bit into a red apple jellybean. Will you discover the treasure? This whisky is part of our small batch experimentation, where we consolidate and re-fill selected casks, drawing them off individually in time as they begin to diverge from one another once more.
