Pale amber color. Sweet spicy raisin muffin, caramelized nuts, chocolate figs, and delicate anise aromas follow through on a silky entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body with very good depth and excellent smoothness. Finishes with a zesty peppered citrus, nutshell, hay, and talc accented fade. A refreshing, appetizing whisky.
