Nose: Fragrant maltiness with a gentle toasted wood background, and a delicate fruitness. Taste: Malty with sweet, spicy, vanilla and oaky notes. Finish: On taste, it is complex, spicy, slightly dry, with a lingering delicate maltiness. A gentle, approachable whiskey, for drinking any time, on its own or on the rocks, and its light taste makes it an ideal base for cocktails.

Decanter Magazine: "Highly Recommended."

This is distilled using crystal malt, a special type of malted barley, for exceptional smoothness.
