Crisp and nicely floral. Surprisingly one-dimensional with hints of earth, herbs and oak. Almost Lowland-esque with very little cask interaction.
The palate is soft and very citrusy. Straightforward and grassy. A bit short and sappy with hints of spice and oak. A slightly bitter after taste. Water makes it a touch sweeter and brings out some barley water notes. But it’s only average.
