"Packed full of orchard fruit aromas and flavours with interwoven notes of maple syrup, honey and orange zest. A dusting of black pepper provides a spicy, warming finish."

93 Points - Whisky Advocate

"Surprise, surprise. This is like the school's best pitcher, who then steps onto the football team and throws for a game-winning touchdown. This is a whole new side to Kavalan. Having out-sherried and out-bourboned us with kickass rock-n-roll whisky, Kavalan goes for gentle and croony, with vanilla and honey. The coup de grace? Apple pie and cream morph into licorice and menthol. Exquisite."
