Tasting Notes by galg
Nose: Lemon pie , sweet thick malty background. Sponge cake, like my mom used to make when I was little (and continues to make today).Vanilla, spice, herbal icing as in grassy ice cream. Green tea and lemon juice cake. very airy, and fluffy. Palate: Lemon cake mixed with vanilla ice cream. Peppery sort of with a spicy dimension added. Thick malt n’ honey drops. Gets fruity after a few minutes. Peach and wee pear become more and more evident, if you let this rest a few minutes in your glass. Finish : Fruit , grass and wood.
A lovely summery treat, and a good example of single cask ‘Toshan. Although it comes in 46% this is a few points better than the last SMWS single cask Toshan I sampled a few weeks ago. ABV is not everything, although it can help if a cask Is chosen wisely.
