Tasting Notes & Reviews

Expert analysis and tasting impressions

1#1

Nose first... oak and honey 🍯, with a bit of smoke curling round. Taste? Mmm, warm spice hits the tongue, then kinda fruity – like baked apple? 🍎 Finish lingers, smooth and woody. Proper comforting stuff, that. 🥃

2#2

so u know the first sip hits u with this kinda smoky peat smell... like a bonfire 🔥 but then it gets all fruity? think dried apricots n honey 🍯 kinda spicy too tbh, like cinnamon sticks. and the aftertaste... wow, long and warm, kinda like vanilla toffee. the texture's proper silky, coats ur mouth nicely. sometimes i get a bit of dark chocolate bitterness, not bad just... complex? u need to sit with it a while, let it open up. prolly not for everyone but if u like a whisky w/ some depth... this one's got layers m8 👌
