Nose: This whisky is bright and immediately shows off its sugary side with green grapes, crisp apple, flowers, and clove honey. The after aroma is sweet wine, but more of a white wine like Riesling and not a darker cognac. It is entreating to the nose and only the subtlest hint of alcohol is present.
Taste: This whisky evolves throughout the tasting. We start off with a creamy mouthfeel and buttery taste of beach-wood, walnuts, and coconut water. As it rests in your mouth it brings out the wine influence and a chili pepper spice to round out the mid palate with something bitter.
As the finish grows on the tongue you find rum sugars mixed with dark semi-bitter chocolate and coffee grounds. The finish is distinctive but bitter. The hold is of medium length, enough to enjoy it after it’s gone.
