Notes

Cask No. 5.96  

A perfumed room

Lowland

A lovely sweet, floral aroma permeated immediately the room as we poured this sample. That was followed by the refreshing scent of lemon meringue pie and honey-glazed brioche hot cross bun. On the palate sparkling white grape, pear and apple juice alongside cracked black pepper pull apart biscuits served with strawberry jam and orange blossom honey. Following reduction, we smoked an apple shisha with some Jaffa cakes and a mug of Earl Grey tea by the side. To taste, cinnamon baked apples with oats and brown sugar while in the finish soft honey nougat with almonds and pistachios.
