This new single malt is chill filtered and bottled at 43%. It is set to be exclusive to specialist whisky shops in the U.S., Canada and Mexico starting at the beginning of March in limited numbers. You’ll find official tasting notes for it below.
- Color: Sunburst gold
- Nose: Intense and crunchy, with lots of oak, peanut brittle, malty or biscuity notes, and hints of crème brûlée. After a while, some orange oil and lemon zest. Ripe pear emerges, along with a subtle hint of menthol. A splash of water opens up the floral nature of the whisky with hints of jasmine, rose and honeycomb.
- Taste: A voluptuous, creamy texture leads into an explosion, of soft, rich, sweet flavors: heather honey, butter candy, white chocolate, pears, apricots and mandarin segments, along with a balancing eucalyptus or menthol note.
- Finish: The flavor lingers for a long time, with more sweet mandarin orange, gentle toasty oak and vanilla.
