Toasted coconut, smoked orange peel, and campfire aromas, with toffee, vanilla, dried fruits, and chocolate-covered macaroon bars on the nose. Master blender Michael Henry serves up a medium-weight dram matured in bourbon, and refilled and re-charred American oak, with flavors of citrus slice, baked pear, canned peaches, toffee, and smoky dark chocolate. The flavor evolution is slow but rewarding, ending with a finish of chocolate and smoke.
