Just poured a dram, pale gold in the glass. First sniff gives spearmint and lemongrass, with a hint of green pepper and a drop of agave syrup sweetness. On the palate, there's a roundness from the bourbon wood, a touch of chenin blanc acidity, and a faint chalky edge. Mid‑palate brings cardamom and a bit of gooseberry tang, finishing rather long with a dry, clay‑like feel. Good surprises throughout, exactly the style I always enjoy. 🥃

Just poured a dram that feels pale gold in the glass, with a tart gooseberry zing and a hint of spearmint freshness. There's a roundness from the bourbon wood, like baked greengages and a whisper of natural vanilla, backed by a slightly nervous, chalky edge and a touch of sour wood. Finishes with a lingering note of green pepper and a faint memory of fresh 10 yo cognac, saved from big blending – surprisingly impeccable for a 25‑year shy refill wood. 🥃

This dram pours a pale gold, and the nose hits you with this sour wood thing – almost like a funky old cask – but then you get these bright lemons and a whisper of cardamom. It’s a bit nervous on the tongue, tart like rhubarb and green gooseberries, with a touch of peaches coming through. The mouthfeel’s got this roundness from the bourbon wood, but there’s clay and chalk in there too, grounding it. It’s impeccable, mind you, but not the most expressive spirit I’ve met. The finish lingers rather long, with hints of spearmint and a dash of agave syrup sweetness. There’s good surprises tucked in – like a splash of chenin blanc or that fresh 10-year-old cognac vibe. You can tell it’s been saved from big blending, that careful touch. The style? Right up my street. 🍑✨

Just poured a pale‑gold dram and felt a little nervous at first – it’s saved from a big blending, so I expected something heavy, but it turned out pretty light. The first sip hits a gentle chalky edge, then fresh green pepper and a flash of spearmint that makes me think of a summer garden. There’s a nice bite of rhubarb and greengages, a hint of cardamom and lemongrass that keeps the palate moving, and underneath all that a smooth, almost clay‑like roundness from the bourbon wood. Mid‑way through I got a sweet surprise of peaches and gooseberries, a whisper of natural vanilla and just a couple of drops of agave syrup that lift the flavor without getting cloying. The finish is rather long, a little angular, with a faint echo of fresh 10‑year‑old cognac and a soft after‑taste of spearmint again. All in all, a very impeccable drink, full of good surprises and the style I always enjoy. 😊

It's a bit reserved at first, you know, like it's holding back. But then you get these lovely tart fruits, rhubarb and gooseberries, mixed with a touch of cardamom and some soft peach. There's a hint of sour wood and a minerally note, almost like clay, which keeps it interesting. What I really enjoy is that roundness from the bourbon cask, it just ties everything together so nicely. The finish is rather long, with the greengages and a subtle sweet note like agave syrup lingering. It's a proper, well-put-together dram. 🥃
