Bank Note Peated Reserve incorporates a small proportion of Islay peated malt into our unique blend of pure Lowland Grain, sweet Speyside, and robust Highland malts, without disrupting the balance. Aged for a minimum of 5 years in American oak this ensures a singular expression of the very best that blended scotch whisky has to offer, with fruit, spice, and smoke, all in perfect harmony. Appearance - soft amber with copper highlights Aroma - gentle smoke lingers over burnt toffee, vanilla, plum jam, and ginger Taste - smoke on the tongue fades into fresh apple peel, dark chocolate, and a peppery spice Finish - mixed nuts and cayenne pepper, with wisps of smoke lingering in the background
