Tasting Notes & Reviews

Expert analysis and tasting impressions

1#1

*Grabs glass, swirls amber liquid* Right, first hit is pure 🌲 smokiness – like damp bonfire embers. Then comes this surprising... caramelised pear? Soft, sweet, but with a proper oak backbone. Oh, and a hint of – what’s that? – ginger snap? Finish is long, warming, slightly peppery. Solid dram for a chilly evening. 😊

2#2

Aight, so this one’s got a reak nose – sweet vanilla and a bit of toffee, innit? 😋 On the palate, it’s malty with hints of oak and a touch of smoky honey. Really lovely, though the apple notes come through more later. 🍎 Finish is long and warming. Not bad at all! 👍

Right so had a wee dram last night and honestly it was bloomin lovely 😊 First thing - loads of honey and vanilla on the nose, proper sweet stuff. Then there's this nice oak coming through, kind of warming like. Took a sip and whoa, got hit with fruit - kinda like pear and apple mixed together. A bit of chocolate aswell, dark and rich like. The spice kicked in after, not too much tho, just a gentle warmth 👌 Finish was long with caramel notes, maybe a hint of lemon at the very end. Really smooth going down, not harsh at all. Overall just a really nice dram for a quiet evening init. Would defo have another glass if someone offered haha 🥃
