A light golden coloured whisky with a rich, mellow, sweet nose. Aromas of spiced fruits, citrus and vanilla give a depth of character along with hints of chocolate and boiled sweets. Buttery smooth on the palate with vanilla and dark chocolate to the fore then more rich fruits and citrus notes appearing late, leaving a lingering sweet finish with a hint of oak
