Golden amber color. Toasty aromas and flavors of honey-butted toast, chocolate toffee, raisin cake, and frosted mini-wheat with a supple, bright, dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body and a warming, compelling, medium-long finish imparting notes of cocoa-dusted dried fruits, roasted nuts, brown spices, and minerals. A very well-balanced and approachable Single Malt with lots of subtle, appealing flavors in an oak-kissed package.
