Right, just having a dram of this. First thought is it’s incredibly fruity, absolutely tons of pears and crisp apples. It’s got that vibrant vibe, almost akin to millions of litres of new make straight off the still, but definately more Speyside-y. Rather sweet with plenty of barley, white fruit, and a touch of pineapple, plums, and a bit of kirsch. But then there’s this weirdly nice gravel and concrete note, like wet pavement, mixed with a hint of olives. Finishes with some good soot and is slightly smoky. Feels like it’s been resting elsewhere for a while. Tasty drop! 🥃

Quite fresh and rather sweet, with loads of pears, apples and a little plum thing going on. There’s a wee touch of pineapple and coconut water too, which makes it feel easy enough 😊 I also get barley grains, a bit of gravel and clean concrete, plus that good earthy dirt note. Finishes medium, with unpeated white fruit, slight olives, artichoke, kirsch and a nibble of burnt oak.
