WHISKY TASTING NOTES
Category: Playful
Nose: The bouquet is that of a vivacious florist with geranium, daisies and orchard blossoms. Auster and mineralic like a Chablis wine becoming heavier with cereal-led notes like a cereal mash in a brewery. Fruit notes develop into banana bread and baked apple.
Palate: The flavours are tart, tangy, zesty, and the mid-pallet becomes more cereal-led, tasting like a fresh apple strudel. It has a pleasantly silky palate. The estery notes explode with water, delivering lots of apple flavour whilst transforming the mouthfeel into buttery elegance.
Finish: Surprisingly long and contrasts with an astringent liquorice, star anise and mocha.
FOOD & MOOD RECOMMENDATION
Foodie Pairing: The light botanical notes within this whisky would pair and enhance fragrant Thai dishes.
Mood Moment: Dance amongst the flowers and be transported to botanical gardens – perfect for parks and picnics.

About our Bottles
For us, one of the best aspects of a good single malt whisky is its ability to bring people together. So when we created our bottles we wanted to design something that felt like a decanter - meant to be passed around a group of friends, new and old, as they enjoy sharing a dram together.
Our bottles have a good weight to them, making them feel substantial and giving them the presence a good whisky deserves. We've offset the label, so that the whisky is centre stage; it shows the natural colour of the liquid clearly and proudly.
The label clearly and transparently shows you all the key information, including: the nature of the liquid (for example, single malt scotch) where it was distilled; how old it is; and how strong it is. All our liquids are natural colour and non chill filtered.
Our bottles come in two sizes: 700ml, which is our standard for our main releases; and for some of our expressions, 100ml minis.
