1#1

Real proper treat this dram is. Nose full o' peat mixed wi sugary fruit. Sip goes down easy, feels like velvet. Toffee notes come through later on. Finish is surprisingly clean, not bitter at all. Definetly recommendin this tae anyone. Best drink Ive had this month. 🥃🔥😋

3#3

This whisky starts with a zesty orange peel note, almost like fresh citrus. 🍊 Then there's a lovely malty sweetness, kinda like biscuits, with a subtle smoky undertone. Finish is smooth with honey and vanilla, a bit of cinnamon spice lingers. Quite nice for a evening dram. 👍 Oh, and a hint of floral too, but not too much.

4#4

Hmm... that first sip hits you right in the chest, you know? 🔥 A right proper warm wave comes first. Then, oh!... a lovely waft of smoky peat, like a distant bonfire on a damp moor. 🥃 There's a lovely sweetness there too, very gentle. Hints of honey and a bit of caramel, I'd say. Maybe a wee touch of vanilla as well. It’s got a great mouthfeel, very smooth. And the finish... it just lingers on, all warm and spicey. A proper winter dram, that is. Makes you feel all cozy inside. 🍯 It’s just a really solid, comforting dram. No fuss, just good.
