🥃 Just had a lovely nip of pure malt whisky, proper good clean fun, like a slightly boisterous youngster in a glass, no fuss at all. Colour’s that perfect pale gold first off. Nose hits you with crisp clean linen freshness, bright green grassy notes, a whiff of mint, that funny goat’s cheesy aspect with the ash rind of the cheese peeking through, and a bit of tart gooseberry compote sweetness too. Take a sip and you get creamy sweet barley, soft porridge vibes, then a little fudge kick, followed by that sharp prickly pop of green pepper and pink peppercorns, a zing of lemon rind and that slightly bitter edge that’s not unpleasant at all. There’s cooling wort freshness, dry earthiness, mossy bits, dry grass, hay, straw even, a hit of cooling cucumber, and that chalky mineral tang at the back. You get little hints of sunflower oil, agave nectar, barley sugar, even a faint whiff of soot and fermenting grist, plus that raw wool slightly fuzzy note and a touch of butterscotch right at the end. Finish is good length, leaves a little orange bitters tingle and that dry, fudge-tinged aftertaste. Proper good robust stuff, perfect for a quiet evening. 🥃
