Tasting Notes
COLOUR: Deep Marmalade
NOSE: Opens with scents of fresh grape and apple, followed by hints of honey and cinnamon spice. The buttery aromas of toffee, almond and vanilla fill the background. With time, beautiful red fruit aromas fill the nose with baked fruits and is completed with tobacco leaf and sandalwood, enveloped in sweet cherry notes.
PALATE: The palate is extremely creamy, delivering rich melon and apricot flavours which intensify an array of fig, marmalade, and grape, sprinkled with white pepper and cinnamon, and more of that great cherry. Never overpowering, with A texture and hint of sweet toffee and honey, leaving a full and long-lasting aftertaste. Delivers a long finish that evolves into a juicy mouthfeel. Oak spices, cinnamon, and caramelized butter add to the enjoyment. A single malt to enjoy and focus on the finer things in life. The small island of Madeira, along with Kavalan's new make and maturation, delivers a big taste to this expression.
