第一口下去满是热带水果的酸甜,有点像咬开一颗熟透的芒果,带着米拉贝尔李那种明亮的酸劲儿。 后来尝到香草和黄油的温暖感,有点像午后晒过的干草堆混着一点点椰香。 果味里还能找到苹果和杏子的影子,偶尔闪过一丝麝香葡萄的甜润。 整体挺轻盈的,麦芽的骨架一直都在,但橡木味并不突兀——说实话,比起那些重桶陈的威士忌,这款更像在果园里散步时喝到的果汁酒 😊

刚抿了一口…诶,闻着就是香草奶油和一点点椰子香气,好像还有点热带水果的甜味 🍍。口感居然这么顺滑,黄油似的,但又不是那种厚重的橡木感——反倒有清爽的果酸,像杏子和小颗李子在舌尖跳。 慢慢喝着,居然想起小时候吃过的香草蛋糕,底下铺着层干草般的麦芽香。余味好长,隐隐约约有点伯爵茶的影子,还带一丝丝花果调…嘿,这瓶真有意思 ✨

Just had a sip of this malt whisky, and it's quite lovely. First, I get this muscat grape sweetness, mixed with small berries and mirabelles. There's a hint of vanilla and coconut too, reminding me of those Meursaults from the 2000s. The finish is long and zesty, with a touch of tartness, not oaky at all. I mean, oak was fashionable back then, but this one's all about the fruit – plums and such. Really enjoyable aftertaste 😊

First sip, I'm getting these lovely green apples and vanilla – like a freshly baked apple tart. Then there's this really gentle, almost creamy layer of wood in there, not at all oaky or harsh. It reminds me a bit of those softer, Parkerised wines sometimes. There's a touch of straw and a hint of sweet muscat grape, too. So very fine and zesty. Honestly, it just tastes like a slice of vanilla cake with a bit of butter. I also get these lovely little plummy notes, mirabelles maybe? A whisper of coconut rounds it all out. It’s just really easy to drink. 🥃

Just had a dram of this malt whisky and it's quite the ride. Starts off with a sweet muscat vibe, then hits you with some tartness, kinda like mirabelles. The long finish lingers with small berries and tropical fruits, a bit of that touch of earl grey sneaking in. Very fine overall, really, with a clear layer of wood – oak was still fashionable, so it's just oakier but in a good way. Zesty notes and vanilla cake come through too. Aftertaste is smooth. 😊 Quite something for an evening sip.
