This 47% 10 year old dram has a lovely nose of leafy greens with melon and peach. There are notes of cream and marzipan too

On the palate it’s oily with vanilla, honey and nutmeg with cinnamon and sherry overtones. My first thought was the smell of an old pencil case

A nice warming dram and ideal for a chilly evening. It’s been finished in acacia wood which Gives it a subtle spice
