Light gold color. Interesting aromas and flavors of well-toasted fruitcake, white cigar ash, grilled mango and coconut, pineapple, kiwi, and and papaya with a silky, bright, fruity medium body and a warming, compelling, long finish evoking overtones of almond milk and honey, sweet and peppery spices, lava stone, and black tea. A sleek and substantial Single Malt with well articulated smokiness, spice, and minerality that will converse well with a Scotch enthusiast’s palate; a natural choice for a fine cigar.
