Details

Tasting notes From Charles MacLean
Tasting Notes
Appearance: Copper, with rose lights (port finished)
Aroma: A mid nose, somewhat closed and nose-drying. Fruity overall (very faint raspberry jam, rose wine), with a hint of faded pot-pourri and an elusive earthiness as its base note. Water opens the aroma only slightly, introducing a background of pale fruits.
Taste: Light texture. Sweet and faintly fruity, then drying slightly, leaving a trace of almonds in the aftertaste. With water the taste becomes sweeter.
Comment: A very light aroma and taste. Very easy to drink. A quaffing malt!
