That single malt that gets many into world of whisky. Simple but always a good drink with friends.

Taste profile of pear and green apple infused water, with some commercialize honey products mix together.

Nose

Pear, apple, restrained malt, wood, oak. Over time there are overtones of light toffee, very clean, a touch of butter, lime.

With water - There is some grass, mild citrus, vanilla.

Taste

A little acidic, mild oak, some apple, a little wood spice, vanilla.

With water - An already restrained palate is toned down even more, a touch spicier

Finish

Medium, vanilla, oak that leaves a slight sweetness.

With water - Citrus, spice.

A more than decent product. Classy bottle design, nicely balanced flavors and beautiful in its simplicity. And yet that's what makes this dram a bit boring. Or is it just my natural preference for the underdog (read: smaller scale distilleries) manifesting itself...

Nose

Vanilla and oak are dominating the glass. Water unleashes the fruitiness. I'm thinking of cooking pears and green apples.

Taste

Not many surprises here. Once again an overdose of vanilla. With a bit of effort you'll discover some coconut and apples. Quite a nice balance but anything but breathtaking.

Finish

Short and dry. Exactly what you're expecting from an appetizer.
