PALATE: On the palate, this whisky reveals an explosion of sweet and spicy flavors. The first sensation is that of rich chocolate and heather honey, immediately followed by molasses-soaked cherries and a hint of cinnamon. The texture is both velvety and powerful, marked by an enchanting complexity. Notes of spiced orange and caramel emerge mid-palate, before giving way to a final touch of ginger biscuits that bring warmth and depth.
