Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Light and fresh with floral notes, apple, orange, oak, and chocolate complexity. Rich, elegant florals mingle with dried apricots, crystallized citrus peels, ginger, vanilla pods, and warm oak. Overwhelmingly intense aromas of deep honeys, beeswax, wild pollen, herbal nectars, mangos, passion fruits, blood oranges, pineapples, peaches, and Manuka honey.
👅 Palate
Complex layers of oak, chocolate, orange, beeswax, and a touch of leather, dry yet masterfully balanced. Luscious, vibrant fruits with Balvenie honey, concentrated flavors, slightly drying in the back but juicy and fresh for 40 years. Cinnamon, nutmeg, thyme honey with floral hints and sherried goodness, sweet and warming.
✨ Finish
Long, elegant, and balanced with complex chocolate, honeycomb, and lingering vibrancy.
