Nose: On the nose, this spirit unfolds a captivating array of aromas. Rich caramel and delicate vanilla wafers create a sweet and inviting foundation. A floral bouquet emerges, with notes of orange blossoms intertwining with hints of baking spices. The presence of green apples and cereal brings a fresh and vibrant character, while ripe yellow pears and dried apricots add depth and complexity.

Palate: The palate unveils candied corn and buttery popcorn providing an indulgent and nostalgic sweetness, accompanied by the familiar allure of caramel and vanilla. The introduction of fresh new leather adds a subtle earthy note, while roasted almonds and sweet almond oil contribute a nutty richness. As the whisky develops, a touch of tobacco leaf and Halloween caramel candies appear, adding layers of complexity and intrigue. The finish is long and satisfying, with a soft dried and lightly charred lemon peel lingering on the palate.

Finish: The finish is long-lasting and satisfying. As the flavours gradually subside, the lingering sweetness of vanilla and caramel lingers on the palate. A subtle spiciness emerges from the heavily charred oak barrels, adding depth and complexity to the overall experience. The finish is smooth and well-rounded, leaving a pleasant and memorable impression.
