The nose took us in different directions – one panellist to a granary mill, another was making hay in sunshine (both cereal destinations), while a third visited a Madeira market (exotic fruits and flowers). The neat palate had mouth-coating viscosity, expanding flavours of sweet malt; spicy, nutty, citric cakes and a hot, dry, lingering finish of ginger, nutmeg and white pepper. The reduced nose had one panellist chopping fresh ginger on a wooden board; another enjoyed coffee and croissants on a newly-constructed wooden deck at the beach. The reduced palate contrasted refreshingly juicy lime and rosewater against green Thai coconut curry.
Due to the philosophy of the SMWS, our signature whiskies are very limited in nature.
We constantly re-order single casks to ensure a varied selection for you to choose from.
