Right then, here’s my take on this dram… Nose is like a warm slice of spiced apple crumble, straight out the oven. cinnamon stick, soft toffee, and a whiff of old leather armchair by the fire 🔥🍎 On the palate, it’s honeyed oats with a cheeky nudge of dried apricot. Then a wee waft of bonfire smoke creeps in—not peaty reek, just a gentle kiss of woodsmoke. A whisper of dark chocolate orange at the back, very restrained. 🍫🍊 The finish stays with you: gentle warmth, a tingle of cracked black pepper, and a silky custard richness that lingers for a proper moment. Bit of a hug in a glass, really. ✨ Maybe a tiny splash of water opens up more vanilla pod and a nutty, almost marzipan vibe. Lovely balance—doesnae knock yer socks off, but keeps you coming back for another sniff.
