Nose: Attic, mild spices, old wood, a little vanilla sour candy.
Flavour: Some red fruit, candied citrus, gingerbread, a hint of lychees, a hint of new wood, some white pepper in the finish.
Body: Dry, slightly creamy on the cheeks, slightly prickling.
Comments: Besides being a dram that won't put its peers to shame it's quite peculiar due to the impressive gingerbread.
