Tasting notes：

Nose: A heavy mixture of warmly spiced liqueur soaked apricots and spiced banana bread on the nose. There's also waxed old leather and furniture polish, like an old armchair that's been well kept. Behind the heavier notes are also bursts of ripe yellow fruits and rich honey.

Palate: Immediately upon tasting you notice the rich oily mouthfeel, this whisky hasn't been washed out with age. After that you get wood spiced honey, more waxed leather and some overripe bananas. There's some more gentle spice notes and some minerality playing behind that.

Finish: The finish is warm and long, with more wood influence and a definite 'old and dusty' feel.
