Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Delicate oral notes kick off this dram, along with hints of digestive biscuit and a cereal note reminiscent of the malt barns. The bourbon influence is presented in notes of vanilla custard and custard creams. A fruity, cherry note develops over time
- Palate: The vanilla note from the nose develops on the palate into favours of sweet, creamy victoria sponge. There are hints of honey and syrup, balanced with fresh barley water
- Finish: A light and sweet nish, with hints of salted caramel to round off this dram
