1#1

Right, got this whisky here... nose is proper interesting. Like, burnt toast? No wait, that's not it... more like... 🥯 a toasted scone with marmalade. Honey notes too, but not the cheap stuff, more like comb honey. On the palate... 🤔 it's got this waxy mouthfeel, almost like chewing on a... a candle? Not in a bad way though! Spice comes through... cinnamon, maybe nutmeg? A bit of orange peel. Finish is where it gets proper good. Lingers, like... 🔥 embers from a campfire. Slighty smoky, not too much. Dried fruit, raisins? And this malty sweetness that just hangs about. Yeah, not bad at all. Would definately have another dram. 👍

Ooh this one's a rite proper treat! 🥃 Aromas a bit of baked apple and vanilla custard, lovely stuff. The palate's got some honey sweetness balanced with a touch of cinnamon spice. Quite smooth, a little peppery kick at the finish. Really warming, perfect for a chilly night by the fire. 🔥

3#3

Oh that’s a nice drop, innit 🥃 Got that kinda sweet vanilla thing goin’ on, maybe a bit of apple or pear. Slight warmth at the back, not too harsh though. Hints of honey? Yeah, I reckon so. Smooth finish, quite mellow really 👍 Proper autumn dram, that. Could sip this all evening.
