EXCEEDINGLY EXQUISITE
Cask No. 38.34
sold out
After the first impression on the nose neat of apple and pear juice as well as buttered corn on the cob, the aromas turned wonderfully sweet; spun sugar, maple syrup waffles, freshly made American pancakes and Turkish delight. The taste was like a super sweet poached pear, pink and white nougat, rosewater and a little spice - a café latte with a cinnamon sprinkling on top. Water turned the nose nutty, peanuts as well as a chocolate hazelnut spread on a toasted crumpet, whilst in the finish we found orange chocolate liqueur. On the palate sweet ripe fruits, some oaky flavours and butterscotch. This very velvety and soft example comes from an Edinburgh based distillery which shut its door in 1988.
