On the nose, there’s brown bread, fruit cake, raisins, bruised plums, walnut, milk chocolate, and toffee. The palate is dense, viscous, and full with baked black fruits, nutmeg, and an almost walnut-like texture. Not to mention the addition of some grippy tannins.
The finish is long and reminiscent of black cherry compote and brine- thanks, Islay!

Our Recommendations
A collection of wine, beer, and spirits that our staff are sippin’ on.
Agave Spirits
Tequila and Mezcal have taken the spirits world by storm and for good reason; upgrade your next margarita or enjoy on their own for a nightcap.
Vermouth
Versatile and delicious, like the pictured Punt E Mes. These make great additions to a number of classic and modern cocktails but are also a joy to sip on their own.

This is an amazing mellow blended scotch with a much higher priced palate.
