Review by Ardmore

Colour

Yellow Gold.

Nose

Straight from the bottle, the initial aroma is of marzipan with just a trace of peat smoke that is overlaid by the morello cherry and blackcurrant fruitiness.

A touch of water releases all the multitudes of complex flavours that one expects from this Highland Malt. The peat smoke appears immediately as a touch of leather that fades and allows the creamier fruit and heather flower rich softness that is balanced by the tang of oak.

Palate

Richness balanced with fruity softness. At bottle strength the peat smoke bursts in the mouth and overpowers the softer flavours. With a touch of water the peat concentration is mellowed by vanilla cream and a sweet oakiness.

Finish

Crisp and quite long lasting.
