Tasting Notes & Reviews

Expert analysis and tasting impressions

1#1

Right, had a wee dram of this earlier 🥃 Nose is sweet, like vanila and maybe some pear 🍐. Very inviting Taste is smooth, bit of spice on the tongue 🌶️. Oak comes through nicely Finish is warm, lingers abit. Perfect for a rainy night 🔥 Definateley worth a try if you like something gentle Cheers!

2#2

Smoky 🌫️ sort of... like a bonfire, but sweet? Tastes a bit of vanilla, maybe some dried fruit – plums or sultanas? Oaky, defintly, with a hint of honey 🍯 on the finish. Spicy too, ginger? And... is that caramel? Quite warming, innit. Nice and complex, but not too heavy. Would be dead good with a bit of dark chocolate, I reckon. 😋

3#3

Right, had a wee dram of this one last night. Nose: got some nice honey and vanilla, maybe a bit of orange peel? 🍊 Palate: creamy, like butterscotch. Then comes a warm spice, kinda like cinnamon. Finish: medium length, leaves a pleasant warmth. Definitely a comfy, easy sipper. 👍 Coulda had a tiny bit more smoke for my taste, but still, pretty solid.
