The palate is soothing and surprisingly chocolatey, with more vanilla and nutty almond giving the whisky a candy bar character. The body is quite creamy and mouth-filling, warming up with touches of dates, maraschino cherries, and a drizzle of honey. The whisky remains engaging well into the finish

Ample fruit on the nose here, kicking off with apple and pear and moving easily into some citrus touches with time in glass. Vanilla pops, but it’s an ephemeral ginger quality that is at first a bit tough to place and which soon becomes intriguing — and which works wonders with all the fruit in the mix. The palate is soothing and surprisingly chocolatey, with more vanilla and nutty almond giving the whisky a candy bar character. The body is quite creamy and mouth-filling, warming up with touches of dates, maraschino cherries, and a drizzle of honey. The whisky remains engaging well into the finish, where a sweet cream quality and some ripe banana echoes give the whole affair a bit of a banana split quality. Memories of Dairy Queen and that long red spoon unlocked.
