Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green
Nose The nose has intense aromas of red cherries, plums, and earthy undertones.
Palate The palate is full-bodied with more ripe fruit flavours from the nose, the year in oak also adds some sweet spice. Soft tannins and a light, natural acidity provide great structure and balance. Good length on the finish.
