Cask No. 54.66  

Party Fizz

Speyside, Spey

Bottle selected by world-renowned Scottish whisky expert and writer Charlie MacLean*

The nose presents a creative tension between tutti frutti sweets, bubble gum, wine gums and lemonade and a creamier sweetness of butterscotch, pannacotta and dulce de leche. The palate, at natural strength, is big, effervescent and mouth-etching, with flavours of perfumed black tea, salted caramel and light spices. Water brings fruity sherbet fizz and pineapple yogurt to the nose and the palate now picks up more fruity sweetness – rhubarb rock, candied peel, tinned mandarins and star-fruit, with hints of flower stems and paint and light ginger spice on the finish. Young but definitely intriguing.
