Sweet Sweet Vanilla Vanilla Citrus Citrus
Variety Single Malt Whisky
Aroma Sweet vanilla and butterscotch reveal the influence of American oak. Behind it, green apples and grapefruit come to the fore.
Taste Sweet with vanilla notes and a hint of buttercream followed by apples and citrus fruits. Very refreshing.
Finish Fresh, distinguished, delicate.
