Tonight's dram is a tricky one. First sip, it’s like smoked beers crossed with sharp medicine, that peppery kick really hits. 🤔 Colour is bright straw, but the taste is… austere. Very dry, Loads of limestone, almost gritty. Wild garlic and sour herbs pop in, then it shifts to stale malt and mashed veg. Honestly, it feels rather all over the place. There’s a coal scuttle smokiness, low lying feelings of peat, then suddenly this grassy, beery stuff. A slowly emerging waxy side tries to smooth things out but doesn’t quite get there. Very tough, even a bit of yoghurt and farmyard cider weirdness. Finish is arid, with a crushed flower stem and vase water vibe. Like five whiskies stitched together by a one-armed lunatic. There are elements I really quite enjoy, but the whole is really quite all over the place. A sappy, concrete of a drink. 🥃
