This dram is excellent – pale gold in colour and just hits the spot. The nose is all honeyed vanilla and sweet oak, with hints of pineapples and that ‘sweet’ vanilla really coming through. On the palate, it’s rounded and tropical, like a pina colada mixed with fruit salad 🍹 There’s chamomile and lime blossom dancing about, while the cask has definitely been more active, letting the oak shine. Ginger spice and moss give it a bit of a kick, but it works in sync beautifully. Reminds me of those middle-aged Speysiders – proper balance between modern and traditional. Re-racking’s done well here, complements the orange liqueur and apples. Niiiiice! Really very good – perfect sipper on a relaxed evening 😌

周末倒了一杯慢慢抿 淡金色的酒液晃起来还挺顺眼 闻着有松树的清香气、带点苔藓的鲜气，还有点花粉和杜松的香，洋甘菊的温柔调也藏得挺好 喝下去酒体中等，甜香草裹着蜂蜜香，跟橙味利口酒配得刚好啊🥃 还有点像椰林飘香那感觉？酸橙花的香气飘上来，各种风味同步得特别舒服 哦对了这是复过桶的，橡木桶活跃得很，调得比一般斯佩塞中年款顺多了，有点像肯塔基那边出的中年斯佩塞款的感觉？有脆苹果香，还有蜂蜜拌水果沙拉的清甜，尾韵带点松脂的回甘 真的超棒的，各方面都perfect啊，Blimey that's proper smooth！

Nice one. 🥃 Pale gold colour, really inviting. Nose is lovely – honey, vanilla, that kind of chamomile tea thing going on, with a touch of pollen. Gets a bit tropical, hints of pineapple and fruit salad, even a wisp of pinesap. The oak really comes out if you let it sit. On the palate, it's wonderfully rounded. That honeyed sweetness is there, works a treat with a bit of ginger and a lime blossom note. Properly vanilla-ed, kind of tropical again, almost like a fruit salad whisky. There's a subtle juniper and mossy edge that keeps it interesting. Finish is medium, very nice. That vanilla and honey just linger, with a little oak. Really very good! It has that classic, comfortable feel – you know, how middle-aged Speysiders go sometimes. It's a perfect summer sipper, almost works like a whisky pina colada. 🍹 Goes down smooth. Definitely one to revisit.

Quite cosy, this one. Warm spice, a bit of oak, and a soft sweet edge 🍯 Feels like a rainy evening dram — easy, mellow, and a tad smoky. Nice little sipper.

Blimey, this one's got a right smokey kick, like a bonfire in the countryside. Then there's a touch of honey and vanilla, smooth as anything. 🥃 Really warming on the palate, perfect for a chilly evening. 😊 A bit of fruity notes too, maybe apples? Love how it lingers. 👌
