Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green

Palate Roasted hazelnut dryness evokes a warmth of crystallised ginger, hints of crushed star anise & caramelised banana. Seville orange zest freshness & bitter chocolate with clove spice running throughout before notes of charred peach & sherry soaked raisins come to the fore.
Finish Toasted oak, dark chocolate & roasted hazelnuts draw out a medium finish with a menthol warmth.
