Light and fresh. Vanilla and light fruit notes of apple and pineapple. A sweetness that reminds me of icing sugar.

Light ,sweet arrival. Malty with fairly non specific fruitiness.
Finish:
Medium, fruity and dry.
Comment:
I got this bottle as an experiment, I've been working my way around Speyside malts recently. This is frankly a little disappointing. The nose is ok if a little subdued. The palate isn't my thing at all. It lacks the intensity of flavour I'm looking for. The finish is a bit of a non event. This isn't to say its badly made, its really not, I just find it largely uninteresting.
