We love these sober and distinguished labels. It’s becoming quite rare in Scotchdom. Colour: straw. Nose: very similar but more on kirsch, fruit stones, almonds, also very tight citrus, think finger limes. Orgeat. Makes you want to pour some in pastis, creating what we call a "mauresque." With water: same sensations, plus apple juice. Glen Moray, when not boosted by weird casks, always leans towards apple juice. I insist, it’s good for your health (they’ll shut this miserable site down one day, I’m sure). Mouth (neat): citrus takes the lead, and we must mention homemade limoncello again. Lemon peel, cane sugar. With water: the same, plus kirsch or any other stone fruit-based spirit. Finish: the same. Comments: it really doesn’t disappoint.
