Roseisle 12 year old The Origami Kite (Diageo Special Releases 2023), 56.5%

Price: 150 Issue: Winter 2023 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Single Malt Scotch

This first single malt release from Roseisle has a nose of orchard and citrus fruit, with kumquat, lime, banana leaf, nectarine, red apple, and jasmine, with a touch of white pepper and vanilla oak. Buttery and fruity on the palate, with green apple, orange, lime, and plenty of spice, settling to apple, marshmallow, cotton candy, and background spices. Residual fruit, spice, and a touch of creaminess on the finish.
