Notes

Cask No. 70.43   

Shelter under palm trees

Highland, Northern

The gentle sweet fruitiness of mango, guava, melon and plums combined with the delicate aroma of elderflower and lime tree blossom cast a spell on us. The surprisingly fresh and zesty flavour of an Indian dip called lime and coconut dhal, with warm naan bread spread more magic. A drop of water and we smoked cigars as we took shelter from a sharp downpour under palm trees in a garden. Waxy and resinous on the palate; plenty of tropical hardwood spice met the sweetness of lavender honey, strawberries and cream as well as fresh pineapple and grapefruit in the finish.
