Tasting Notes

Nose

Juicy herbal blackberries with tart sloes — warm and fruity with Hebridean berry richness

Palate

Tart sloe berries meeting Uist brambles — hint of almond and vanilla from the bourbon cask ageing, juniper staying front and centre throughout

Finish

Smooth and beautiful — the bourbon cask mellowing the tartness with vanilla warmth
