About Scents of a haunted mansion: This is a classic style of a member favourite distillery, with as much vanilla sweetness as smoked-bacon peat to offer. Don’t forget the seafood tower and toasted marshmallows on the finish. We love the full-bodied expression that shines through refill ex-bourbon wood.
Tasting Panel Note: The nose combined buttered popcorn, croissants and brazil nuts with fresh mackerel, applewood-smoked bacon and crème brûlée dusted with cinnamon and coal ash. The palate was equally sweet, with hazelnut praline, strawberry jam and barbecue sauce mixing with smoked kippers, crab meat and pencil shavings. With water came a full fishing harbour of mussels, lobsters and seaweed smoke with burning herbs and heather, before black cherries and marzipan merged with chimney soot. Still sweet, flavours now embraced icing sugar, caramel wafers and burnt marshmallows beside singed pastries, buttered crusty bread and salmon-flavoured candy floss.
