Hamish Says
Nose: sweet toffee, vanilla fudge and honeycomb for a rich and malty nose with some citrus and mild oak spice.
Palate: lusciously syrupy with honey and malty notes, developing into rich oak and dried fruits with cinnamon and ginger flashes.
Finish: honeyed with delicate spice and oak aspects.
