Buttery, capers
Lemon rind
Grapefruit rind
The bitterness in the finish clarifies as the rind of a grapefruit which is a very interseting sensation for a single malt. This is an advanced single malt and very un-Speyside-y.

Fresh as a spring morning and King Vitamin cereal; cut: rum raisin
Lemon meringue; other worldly great palatte
Subtle rum in the finish
Faster distillation processes at Auchroisk. Rum cask finish doing the heavy lifting. Loved this expression.
