Tasting Notes

This New Zealand Pinot Noir Cask aged whisky is a real treat for the senses. The nose greets you with a delightful medley of blackcurrant compote, tinned peaches, figs, honey-roasted peanuts, and oaky tannins, accompanied by hints of stone minerality, BBQ rub, pickled walnuts, watermelon, and Black Forest gâteau. On the palate, it's a full-bodied, slightly waxy delight, with waves of spice, oak, and pepper bursting forth, followed by rich notes of dark chocolate, fruitcake, red wine, Manuka honey, oak char, and walnuts. The finish lingers with stewed plum, toasted brown sugar, a touch of earthy red chili, and a sweet cherry note, leaving you craving for another sip of this unique and flavorful dram.
