Notes

Cask No. 82.42   

Hayloft happiness

Highland, Eastern

Our careful appraisal of the nose suggested tutti frutti ice-cream and fruity boiled sweets, honey and golden syrup – then more subtle hints of haylofts, pistachios and baskets of dried flowers. The palate was an intriguing bittersweet combination of apricot Danish, gooseberry flan and apple pie, sugared almonds, dark chocolate and crystallised ginger; the finish left chewed pencils, cinnamon rice pudding and lemon zest. The reduced nose found leafy hedgerows, buttery caramelised bananas and marzipan petits fours, while the palate now had marshmallows speared and toasted on birch twigs, pumpkin pie and root beer, then white pepper and mace to finish.
