Nose: Dark berry fruits and vibrant citrus zest along with almonds, hazelnut, and chocolate. The oak influence adds sweet vanilla and perfumed balsamic wood notes complementing the pot still spices.

Taste: Luscious and full-bodied with sweet cherries, blackcurrants, and blackberries. Spices and herbal notes of peppermint, anise, and grated ginger build over time, while the wine-seasoned casks impart soft tannins.

Finish: The pot still spices remain for a time, finally yielding to the oak and woodland fruits.
