In Good Company

Open and expressive.

Dark dried fruits - raisin, currant, and sultana - rise first, wrapped in the aroma of baked cake and gentle spice. A subtle savoury note follows, pickled fruit and soft brine, adding depth beneath the sweetness.

Dried spices emerge next: cinnamon bark and nutmeg dust, followed by the steady aromatic warmth of clove and allspice. Toasted pecan and almond sit quietly underneath, joined by a flicker of charred citrus peel and a hint of varnished wood, lending warmth and intrigue.

Powerful and mouth-coating.

Salinity and fermented grain appear first, tightening the palate and sharpening the senses. Sweetness follows in waves: golden syrup poured over Christmas cake, rich with dried fruit and spice, softened by brandy butter warmth.

Toasted pecan and almond add depth, while smoky notes and charred citrus peel bring savoury balance. Spice builds steadily, clove and allspice, with cinnamon bark and nutmeg dust, carrying a peppery heat that gathers at the back of the palate. A fine, mouth-watering grip draws everything together.

Long, hot, and lingering.

Peppery heat, spice, and smoke persist alongside toasted nuts, brine, and leather. Sweetness fades slowly - syrup, dried fruit, and butter - leaving savoury warmth and a gently tightening hold. The final impression is generous and enduring, a whisky that stays with the moment and the company it keeps.
