第一口就尝到液态柠檬蜂蜜般的甜润 🍯 慢慢散出黄香李和杏子派的香气 很像在喝一杯果酱红茶 但底下隐约有点像维生素片的微酸 有点怪 后调突然跳出些意料之外的香料感 和前面的果味稍显打架 🍂 像秋天踩着落叶时闻到的混合气息 回味不算长 倒是有几分贵腐酒的甜腻感 酒体整体很像用了超活性法国橡木桶 有种活泼的张力 说真的 果味做得相当到位 适合配下午茶点心 🫖

Had a whisky with a split personality syndrome last night – neutral base, then vanilla and super-active French oak hit me. No odd spiciness, thankfully, and not whorishly sweet; more like strolling through autumn leaves. The double-maturation’s clever; extracts and mingles honey with vitamin C tablet tartness. Sweet and fruity, like tinned pineapples and a glass of orange juice. Add a drop of water, and it turns into liquid lemon honey with apricots in syrup. Medium finish, done in a wonderful manner. I shouldn’t like this, and yet I do. Sauternes barrique brings a wine-like sweetness, but good for wine isn’t obligatorily good for spirits – here it works. Ripe greengages, mirabelle jam, and a wee earthiness. Colour’s dark gold, with a solid malt backbone. Tastes of squeezed oranges, apricot pie, even mirabelle plums. Very well done, mate. 🍂🍯

Okay，so pour myself a dram and give it a nose... Right，I shouldn’t like this, and yet I do. It’s like that apricot pie your nan makes – sweet and fruity, but not whorishly sweet, you know? There’s this big hit of vanilla and liquid lemon honey up front, like a good squeeze of oranges into your morning juice. Then I get that note of tinned pineapples and apricots in syrup, almost like vitamin C tablets dissolved in orange juice. It’s got this double-maturation thing going on, I reckon, with that super-active French oak giving it a bit of a split personality syndrome. One minute it’s all Haribo’s best and mirabelle jam, the next there’s a wee earthiness and rather autumn leaves. With a drop of water, it really opens up. That’s when the quince jelly and mirabelle plums come through, along with a good measure of malt. No odd spiciness at all. The finish is medium, leaving you with a clever, dark gold memory of honey. It’s not just sweet – it’s got a wonderful manner of extracting and mellowing all those flavours. Very well done, I’d say.

Dark gold in the glass, looks lovely. 🥃 Nose has autumn leaves and mirabelle jam, with vanilla from that super-active French oak. Not whorishly sweet, which is nice. Taste starts with squeezed oranges and vitamin C tablets – a bit like citrus zest. Then it opens up to apricots in syrup and tinned pineapples, with a hint of apricot pie. There's a wee earthiness from the malt, and it works with water to extract and mingle more flavours. Clever stuff, really. Finish is medium, leaving a liquid lemon honey feel. Ripe greengages and quince jelly come through, plus a touch of Sauternes. Not obligatorily good for spirits, but I reckon it's wonderful for a change. 😊

Lovely wee dram 🥃 Feels warm and mellow, with a bit of honey, oak, and gentle spice. Slight fruitiness too, like baked apple. Finish is cosy, not too sharp — quite easy to sip.
