The palate delivers layers of dark berry compote, fig jam, nutmeg, caramel, and soft oak, all wrapped in a silky mouthfeel. The finish is long and elegant, with lingering red fruit and cocoa. Ideal for sipping neat, it pairs wonderfully with lamb roast, cranberry tart, or blue cheese. This whisky showcases Pike Creek’s mastery in wine-cask finishing.
