Official tasting notes.
Nose: Marmalade and honeycomb complemented with lime syrup and buttered ginger cake.
Palate: A silky palate, think custard and cinnamon drizzled in golden syrup. Followed by bursts of fresh ginger, citrus fruits and ginger bread biscuits. Underlying notes of toffee, and malted vanilla milkshake. A unique whisky which showcases its initial bourbon cask maturation on the palate. Hints of rum and plenty of ginger flavours with a mild, balanced spice kick.
Finish: A medium to long finish with a continuing sweetness accompanied with oak, cinnamon, and a gentle ginger and citrus spice.
