Colour: White wine, or better vino verdhe.
Nose: Honey and soft fruits. Heather blossoms, almonds and soft malt (vanilla) in the back. Easy and a little unimportant.
Taste: Now white chocolate and again vanilla and some malt and caramel. All in all very soft and round. Nothing hurts but there are no surprises either. No trace of smoke neither in the nose nor the palate.
Finish: Here now the first soft surprise shows up: Soft traces of milky coffee with caramel syrup can be detected between the even sweetness and offer a bit of complexity. After the a litle bit disappointing nose this is a a conciliatory finish.
Conc.: A fine and pleasant highlander to fit any bugdet for those who like it mellow and a great whisky to seduce the lady of your heart who does not appreciate smoky malt whisky.
