Nose
Buttery with light mint teasing in the background; nuttier profile from extended oak maturation without aggressive oak blast.
Palate
Very well balanced across the entire palate; buttery and rich with nice nutty notes; subtle minty or eucalyptus-like cooling sensation on the finish providing freshness; berry notes present; complex yet harmonious.
Finish
Medium to long with white pepper character and a light eucalyptus cooling sensation; pleasant lingering quality.
Remarkable
A beautifully crafted seven-year expression where secondary French oak finishing adds depth and sophistication without overwhelming the delicate grain character of the base spirit.
