Blimey, this whisky is glorious 🍸! It's refreshingly alive, like a spring morning in the countryside. I get hints of vanilla essences, straw, and a feeling of wine, like a rich mead. It drinks like wine, all smooth and sophisticated. There's a depth to it, like a very old whisky, with notes of dough roll and a hint of Haut-Brion blanc. The white berries and green berries are lovely, like a walk in the orchard. And the softer beers notes are a nice touch, like a pint down at the pub. I also get pebbles, drops of coconut, and a tartness that's just right. The medium finish is perfect, like a warm hug on a cold day. There's tiny herbs and pale honeys, like a field of wildflowers. And the humus and Jerez vinegar add a complexity that's just fascinating. It's like a cider, all fresh and fruity, with a hint of honeysuckle and iron. The yellow berries and plums are a nice surprise, like a juicy secret. The old white notes and lower natural strengths make it feel like a perfectly nervous whisky, like a first date 🍷. It's complex,

Blimey, this one’s a proper head-scratcher. First sip hits you with this iron-like tang, like licking a pebble from the beach, but then it mellows into something more… curious. There’s a whiff of damp earth and old wine barrel, makes me think of granddad’s cellar. The palate’s got green berries and yellow berries bouncing about, with a hint of kiwis that’s oddly refreshing. It’s got that wine-like body, almost like a white Bordeaux, but with a shy, nervous edge. You get these tiny herbs and honeysuckle flitting through, then BAM – a splash of Jerez vinegar that wakes you up. The finish is medium, clinging to the tongue like a half-remembered dream. Oddly satisfying, though. Can’t quite place the label – looks like it was designed by a moody artist – but the dram itself? Proper complex. Makes me wanna pour another and mutter “hold on, watch this!” under my breath.

Just had a dram that felt lower natural strengths but surprisingly complex – hints of kiwi and white berries, a touch of damp earth and humus, with drops of coconut and vanilla essences swirling in. It’s got that old wine barrel feel, a little tart like Jerez vinegar, and a medium finish that leaves pebbles and iron on the tongue. Honestly, it drinks like wine, refreshingly alive, and honestly glorious – hold on, watch this! – a whisper of honeysuckle and tiny herbs, almost like softer beers meets a plummy straw note. 😊

Blimey, this one’s a proper puzzle—like sipping an old wine barrel that’s been napping in damp earth. Straw and pale honeys first, then a whiff of colza oil and green berries, almost like a cider that’s had a chat with vanilla. There’s iron in there too, sharp as pebbles, but then it softens into white berries and a hint of mead. Hold on, watch this! The finish lingers with kiwis and tiny herbs, tart but glorious. Feels alive, almost nervous, like it’s got stories to tell. 🍷✨

Quite tart and lively, with kiwi, green berries and a bit of cider snap straight away. Then it goes softer, like pale honey, straw, vanilla, dough and a tiny coconut touch. There’s a funny winey feel too, old barrel, damp earth, pebbles, little herbs, even a splash of sharp vinegar. Bit scary at first, but in a lovely “hold on, watch this!” way 😄 Finishes medium, with plums, honeysuckle and white berries hanging about. Drinks more like an old white wine than a big dram, honestly.
