Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Golden amber with warm copper tinge from Armagnac cask influence; natural colour, non-chill filtered
Nose
Bright and inviting — baked apples, orange peel, pear drop alongside vanilla custard and a subtle herbal undercurrent. More wood and spice than the standard 13yo, with cinnamon and stewed orange
Palate
Medium-bodied with smooth, full texture. Caramel-shortbread, malted barley sweetness, and orchard fruit complemented by warm spice — ginger, cinnamon — and a light burst of tropical pineapple. The Armagnac cask adds grape-brandy richness
Finish
Medium finish retaining malt, citrus, and spice notes. Spicier than on the palate, with the Armagnac influence adding a grapey warmth on the fade
