Blimey, this one’s proper something else, innit? 🥃 That deep amber colour’s a dead giveaway first, y’know? Nose hits you with citrons, orange squash, then all the dried fruit vibes – dates, waxed figs, currants, pears, even mirabelles, plus that old amontillado nutty tang, manuka honeys, mentholy sultanas with a little camphory fresh kick. First sip’s glorious, proper complex. You get that stewed prune sweetness, mentholy fudges, even a weird but brilliant miso soup umami hint? Then game-y depth, old tobaccos, tobacco strand, a little Parma ham savoury edge, even that liquorice, liquoricy bite. Oak’s been mastered to perfection, no modern wood-technology nonsense, so you get toasted croissants, shortbreads, mutton suet richness, old cognac warmth, very resinous undertones, heather notes, even a whiff of leather polish like you’d use on old Connolly kit. Finish is long, so rounder and smooth, just lingers nicely. Proper cracker of a dram, that. 🥃

Just poured a dram and got hit with deep amber colour, a smooth mouthfeel that rolls like toasted croissants and manuka honey, then a wave of mentholy fudges and liquorice that reminds me of old amontillado sherry. There’s a touch of game‑y leather polish and dried fruits – currants, figs, dates – with a hint of camphory oak that feels like it’s been mastered to perfection, no modern wood‑technology nonsense. Finishes long and rounder, almost like a miso soup umami bump wrapped in glorious heather and a whisper of old tobaccos. 🥃

Poured myself a cheeky dram earlier and bloody hell, it’s glorious. 🥃 Nose is all toasted croissants, old amontillado and a whiff of tobacco strand — even a bit of miso soup in there? Weird but works. Palate’s rounder and smooth, with dried fruits, figs, currants and a touch of Parma ham. That oak’s been mastered to perfection, gives leather polish and old cognac vibes. Finish is long and mentholy, with manuka honeys and liquorice fading out. Deep amber colour too. Complex, savoury, brilliant.

Poured a deep amber dram, the nose hits me with figs and waxed figs, a hint of mentholy sultanas and a touch of manuka honey. On the palate it’s smooth yet complex – shortbreads, toasted croissants, a whisper of tobacco strand and oak’s been mastered to perfection. There’s a gamey edge, maybe Parma ham, with dried fruits like currants, dates and stewed prunes, plus a splash of orange squash and citron zest. A linger of liquorice and very resinous notes, rounded off by a glorious, long finish that feels almost like old amontillado meets old cognac. Smoky heather in the background, no modern wood‑technology vibe. 😊

The first nose hits me with this warm, almost toasty smell—like biting into a just-out-of-the-oven croissant, all buttery and golden. There’s something herbal and mentholy lingering underneath, maybe from the heather or those mentholy fudges, which is oddly refreshing. When it hits the tongue, it’s this rich, deep amber warmth, but then you get these surprise bursts: sweet currants, stewed prunes, and these waxed figs that taste like they’ve been soaked in honey. The Parma ham and game-y notes sneak in too, giving it a savory edge that’s weirdly satisfying. It’s smooth going down, but there’s backbone—like oak mastered to perfection, with hints of old tobaccos and leather polish. The finish is long, coating the mouth with this liquoricy depth, and I’m suddenly thinking of sitting by a fire, oranges and pears in the air, maybe a hint of miso soup from nowhere. Glourious, really. Not sure how they pack so much in without it feeling cluttered.
