Tasting Notes:
Nose: The nose is vibrant and lively with a wealth of roasted oak and light sweetness. Aromas reminiscent of a French patisserie, freshly baked Tarte Tatin, and buttery choux pastry.
Palate: On the palate, the whisky is profound, velvety smooth, and indulgently sweet. Notes of café crème with soft brown sugar and a hint of spice are distinctly noticeable.
Finish: The finish shows a very long-lasting sweet oak note.
