The elegant dark chocolate flavor is wrapped in smooth caramel and silky cream, while the mint cools and refreshes the palate. Imagine all the creamy goodness of a bowl of ice cream combined.

Nose has sharp, grassy maltiness and a touch of salt; ultra-malty and rich-textured taste; finish has varying shades of malt and a late oaky complexity. A deceptively complex and distinguished malt.

A delicate, slightly floral nose leads to a malty arrival on the palate that is sweet with a backdrop of oak. The finish is clean with subtle cocoa notes that reveal the advancing years of the whisky.
