A Fragrant Speyside Opening

The nose introduces the whisky with inviting aromas of Christmas spices, creating a warm and seasonal first impression. Beneath the spice, hints of crisp apple bring a fresh edge, while candied citrus peel adds a bright, sweet note. The result is an engaging aroma that feels both comforting and refined.

With time in the glass, the scents become softer and more rounded. The combination of spice, orchard fruit and citrus sweetness suggests a whisky with plenty of character, yet it remains easy to appreciate. This is a bottle that rewards a quiet moment of exploration, whether enjoyed after dinner or shared with fellow whisky lovers.

Rich, Balanced Flavours

On the palate, the whisky develops into a smooth and satisfying combination of fudge, raisin and black pepper. Fudge brings a creamy sweetness, while raisin adds depth and a touch of dried-fruit richness. Black pepper provides a gentle spark, keeping the flavour lively rather than overly sweet.

The refill sherry puncheon supports these flavours without overwhelming them. Instead of masking the spirit, the cask helps create a balanced profile where fruit, sweetness and spice work together. Its 51.7% strength gives the whisky a confident presence, while a small splash of water can reveal further softness and detail.
