Additional Notes

Color: Amber. NOSE: Creamy, smoky, raisins, nuts, spices. Aromas of tropical fruits like pineapple come through the first layer of honey. The palate is very smooth with more fruit, this time including quince and mandarins. Chocolate fudge, maple, and dried fruit. There are enough soft spices such as cinnamon and vanilla to give structure to the whiskey and the finish is perfectly sweet and smooth.
