Tasting Notes.
Nose: Roasted cashews, rather floral and a hint of strawberries. Freshly cut Summer pudding with spun sugar and vanilla ice cream.A malty dram. The nose leads to the palate nicely and there are cranberries, raspberries, strawberries, blueberries and boysenberries mixed with freshly made vanilla caramel. Hints of chocolate and soft peppery spice, think strawberries in a brandy snap basket. A little bit of citrus on the finish, very soft and easy-drinking, and a medium finish.
