From Whiskynotes.be
Nose: sweet oranges at first, with hints of creamy donut and lemon candy. Then nectarines and biscuits, along with sultanas. There’s a light yeasty side, as well as a greener, rather grassy or herbal edge. A seductive profile.
Mouth: a similar sweetness, partly fruity (apricot, orange, plum and lemon cake) but also pastry-like (buttery oak, custard). Then gingery notes and some white pepper, bringing a light warming heat underneath, as well as an Irish pot still element at times.
Finish: fairly long, with the same combination of fruits, vanilla and rich oak spice.
Much richer than most of the Auchentoshans we normally come across. The fruitiness and round pastry character makes it impossible to dislike and almost too easy to drink. 88pts
