Tasting notes
Golden Straw-yellow
Plenty of bright fruits and parcially single malt notes. Green Banana, green apples, unripe pears and a hint of kiwi. Subtile notes of orange juice and minth. Warm cinnomaon pastry and vanilla as well as gentle woody kicks.
Brightness of Granny Smith apples and Kiwi. Creamy with hints of Banana. Caramell toffee and vanilla coming on the second wave with crispy honeyed biscuits. Gentle clove, nutmeg and eucalyptus as well as a grassy/woody edge.
Short finish, the fruits fade away making room for more spices and vanilla.
