Tasting Notes & Reviews
Expert analysis and tasting impressions
Blimey, this dram’s proper decent honestly. 🥃 Nose smells like fresh apple pie with loads of vanilla bean sweetness 🍦. Bit of citrus zest kicks in too. Palate is silky smooth but ends with a wee spicy kick. Perfect for a cold night. Won’t complain about a second glass 😉. Realy worth grabbing.
Right, had a wee dram tonight. 🥃 Nose is proper sweet, like honey 🍯 and vanilla. Got a bit of fruit too, maybe pear. Taste is smooth, bit of spice kickin in. Warmth goes down easy. Finish is long-ish, oaky vibes. 🪵 Definitly one for a quiet evening. Good stuff innit. Cheers! 🍻
Right, had a dram of this earlier 🥃 Nose is proper sweet, honey and pear maybe 🍐 Palate got a bit of spice, cinnamon lik. Finish is warm, lingers nicely tho. Colur is lovely gold. Smooth enough, no harsh bits. Reckon its a good un for quiet nights 🌙 Cheers 👍
Bloody hell, this one's got a proper smoky (s) kick with a bit of oak (o) and some earthy (e) undertones. Smooth on the go down, innit? 🥃 First sip: smokey aroma, then hints of honey and spice. Lovely stuff, really. 😋 Might notice a touch of fruitiness too, but it's a bit of a guess. Quite nice, all in all.
Blimey, this one's got a proper nose on it – all smoky and honey-like 🍯, maybe a touch of leather. Tastewise, it's smooth with vanilla and some fruity notes, think apples or pears 🍎, and a bit of oak. Finish lingers with a spicy kick and a hint of peat. Not half bad, really! 🥃
Aye, just had a dram of this – first off, the nose is lovely, bit of apple and a hint of spice, like. Tastes a bit smoky but smooth, with some vanilla notes coming through. The finish is warming, almost creamy. 🥃🍎 Quite enjoyabel, really. Gets better with each sip.
First sip... woody, a bit smoky. Like a autumn bonfire 🍂. Ooh, nice. Then some honey sweetness comes through 🍯. Vanilla too. Kinda smooth, you know? There's a spicy kick, maybe cinnamon? Lingers nicely at the back. Yeah, really nice warmth. Texture's good, not too harsh. Definately a good one for sipping slowly. 🥃
