Sweet aromas of honey and cream. On the palette tastes young and a bit fiery. Principle flavours include that sweet honey and cream with a hint of petrol giving an oily texture. I prefer big peaty island malts but this is a nice everyday dram.

Slightly richer on the nose, builds on the palate, soft overall but particularly on attack, fuller at mid-palate with encroaching peatiness, some forcefulness on the finish, nice but not entirely convincing.

The color is deep orange amber with strong aromatics. Smells of butterscotch with orange peel zest and a bit of earthy mildew. Full on the palate it just rolls off and down. Most of the flavors arrive at mid palate with a tip of sweetness. Theres a touch of red spice that lingers after the butter has dissolved. Mild on the peat yet noticeable. A soft style. Recommended.
