Nose: The aroma is dominated by fresh, herbaceous notes of peppermint and pine, complemented by the sweetness of melon and the coolness of cucumber.
Palate: The palate mirrors the nose with a smooth transition of herbal flavors. Mint continues to evolve, with a citrus zest adding a vibrant touch.

Nose: Very sweet. Initially, it is all creme caramel, caramelised fruit sugars, wood sugar, toffee and fudge before some apple and peach come through. In time, a charred note of bourbon with a pleasing dusty dryness. Has some power.
Palate: Sweet start and quite fat. Though the alcohol gives a little tongue-tingling buzz, the result is a good mid-palate weight. The dry distillery character is still there, but there is now depth to counter. Water slightly dismantles the different elements but adds some dried mint.
Finish: Deep and dark, with gentle spice and lingering peat smoke.
