Delight in the Drizzle

$105

A lovely cask for the ex-bourbon purist. Vanilla, toasted oak and soft orchard fruit lead into honeysuckle and lavender, with a polished woodiness adding depth before ginger, pepper and leather bring a gently spicy finale. A beautifully balanced dram where the distillery’s delicate spirit lets the cask take center stage.

Tasting Panel Notes

Flakes of toasted coconut and vanilla pods combined in biscuits that the Panellists crumbled over peaches, pine cones and honeysuckle flowers. A hint of polished wood followed, before the palate arrived with mouth-coating lemon syrup and honey oozing over fresh raspberries, lavender tea and soft sponge cake. Crunchy tea biscuits and jam-filled Swiss rolls arrived with a few drops of water, preparing the senses for a follow-up of orange ice cream and shaved lemon skin in a new leather bag. A little ginger and pepper tingled the taste buds before the sticky syrup morphed into raspberry jam laced with chillies, pine wood and milky chai tea.
