Tasting Notes
Nose: Bright mint, baking spices, caramelized nuts, and a hint of sweet cereal with a refreshing marshmallow top note.
Palate: Rich and oily—mint-forward with nutty sweetness, mild spice, raisin notes, and a smooth texture that belies its strength.
Finish: Long and warming, with lingering pepper, char, tobacco, and soft caramel–cherry nuances emerging over time.
What Makes It Special

How to Enjoy
Best neat in a Glencairn glass to appreciate its layered profile; a few drops of spring water can open up fruit and spice. For a more casual serving, a large ice cube cools and softens the intensity.
