Tasting Notes & Reviews

Expert analysis and tasting impressions

1#1

Right then, just had a dram of this 🥃. Nose is lovely, sweet like honey 🍯 and a hint of smoke 🔥. Goes down smooth, warms the chest nicely. Finish is long, leaves a bit of spice on the tongue. Proper good for a rainy day 🌧️. Might of had one too many glasses though 😅. Definately worth the taste.

2#2

Crackin dram this. Nose full o’ honeyed orchard fruits 🍐🍏 and a wee wisp o’ bonfyre smoke 🔥. Pallate’s lush—toffee apple drizzeled in vanilla custard 🍮. Finish lingerss with a peppery tingle 🌶️. Not bad at all 😌

3#3

Rite, so this whisky's got a proper smoky taste. 🍂 Kinda fruity too, like apples or pears. 🍎 A bit of spice at the end, quite warming. 🌶️ Makes you feel all cozy and relaxed. 🛋️

4#4

Right so first sip - proper warming innit 🔥 Getting loads of vanilla and honey on the nose, maybe a bit of caramel? Then it kinda opens up... bit of smokiness, some dried fruit notes coming through. Quite chewy actually, almost like christmas cake without the icing lol Finish is lovely and long, bit of spice - ginger maybe? And a touch of oak. Really smoooth going down 😌 Would deffo have another dram of this one. Nose: toffee, hints of pear, lttle bit of cinnamon maybe? 🍐 Tastes like autumn in a glass honestly. Warming, cozy, a wee bit of peat smoke at the end. Not too peaty though, just enought to give it some depth. Perfect for a friday evening after work 👌

5#5

Nose: 🍯 honey & warm vanilla, with a bit of peaty smoke. Palate: Quite sweet, maybe some orange peel and cinnamon? Finish: Warm and spicy. A bit oily. Overall a nice dram. 🥃

6#6

Oh, this whisky's got a proper smoky start, like a bonfire in the distance. Then it mellows out with some sweet vanilla and a touch of citrus, maybe? Quite warming and smooth, goes down a treat on a chilly evening. 😋🥃 Sometimes a bit of oakiness comes through, but it's all part of the charm, innit?

7#7

Proper lovely nose, mind you. 🍯 honey and a bit of citrus, I reckon. Some vanilla too. Sippin' it now... warm, like. A bit of dark chocolate and spice comes through. 🔥 Finnish is long, a touch o' smoke lingers. Really nice. 👍
