Distilled from a single Concerto variety of unpeated barley (grown/malted in England), the cask was filled on 25/03/2018 at 64.5% ABV and matured in a natural environment at M&H’s Jaffa warehouse. Bottled at natural cask strength to retain the original flavours, we encourage adding water as per personal preference. Color: copper gold Nose: toffee, caramel and fresh pencil shavings Palate: sweet cinnamon, cloves, oak spices and black tea Finish: sour fruits and cocoa bitters at the end.

WhiskyFun rated 85 points (SGP 564) Extract "Mouth (neat): it’s really good, I’d almost call this ‘good thin peat’. Limoncello, oysters, ashes, riesling, mercurochrome ...With water: same, while the body got bigger rather than thinner once water’s been added. Comments: very good for sure, just rather ‘hesitating’."
