Profoundly rich and fruity: soft fruits (nectarine, ripe peach, ripe gaya melon), with a floral note (rose) early on, and a hint of scented wood. Water suppresses the subtleties of the aroma, but raises a shake of white pepper; the floral note is still there, now with traces of soft toffee. A smooth texture and lightly sweet taste to start, drying elegantly, with a fragrant middle and a light spiciness across the tongue in the long finish. Not quite so rich, sweet or spicy to taste at reduced strength, but very pleasant.
Wears its considerable age very well; still lively on the nose and in the mouth. An unusual malt of considerable complexity.
