Tasting Notes:
Undeniably Daftmill, this whisky presents a nose full of tropical notes and rich sweetness. On the palate, enjoy the classic barley sugar and malt flavors associated with Francis's distillate, complemented by a distinct sweet dark fruit uplift on the finish, hinting at the light sherry influence. A deep, complex, and lengthy dram that embodies the hallmark Daftmill character.
