Part of the Edrington Group family of brands.

Nose: Rich vanilla cream sweetness with light wisps of smoke and an earthy dark chocolate sweetness.
Palate: Initially a rich combination of dried fruit and citrus and slowly this rolls into a rich peat smoke. It is a wonderful contrast, it is almost as if the whisky comes in two parts allowing an insight to the flavour before being enveloped in sweet peat notes. The light elements of smoked dried fruits and an almondy nuttiness makes it feel almost chewy.
Finish: Long sweet dried fruit with a lengthy sweet peat flavour.
