Ripples in a rainbow

$230

Two decades of aging has afforded this Lowland malt with incredible balance of luscious fruit and oak for you to indulge in. We’re huge fans of Society bottlings from Distillery 5 and this is another that will make you think differently about “light” Lowland malt…. this dram packs a serious punch!

Tasting Panel Notes

A cascade of concentrated fruit cordials rippled over fresh oak and coriander like a strawberry and raspberry rainbow bursting through a lush forest. Dried apricots and peaches tumbled in a river of white chocolate as it bubbled over nougat boulders and ginger pebbles. After reduction the torrent of taste had settled into a floral flow of lilies and apple blossom, carrying cinnamon buns bobbing alongside old oak barrels from a dunnage warehouse. Banana foam sweets swirled around scatterings of desiccated coconut while fragrant pears gently poached in a hot spring of sweet and juicy sauternes dessert wine.
