Justhad a dram that reminded me of rum‑soaked honey cake with a whisper of damp paper and a little waxy note. There’s a hint of vintage English blond tobacco and a touch of lemongrass, plus dried fig and wine‑soaked figs swirling in. It glides into all the beehive things – honey tart, banana cake, a tiny pinch of salt and pollen – and finishes with good grief, how utterly delicious this was. 🍯

Just had a dram that reminded me of lemon blossom honey drizzled over a warm honey cake, with a whisper of peppermint and a touch of lemongrass. There’s a golden, almost beeswax glow, like little waxy notes gliding into all the beehive things, plus a hint of mirabelle and wine‑soaked figs. A faint note of damp paper and pollen lingers, while the background feels like vintage English blond tobacco and old books on a shelf. Good grief, how utterly delicious this was – sweet, nutty, with peanut butter and banana cake vibes, all wrapped in an overall delicacy that’s not very long but feels infinite.

哇，这杯威士忌喝起来真让人惊喜！首先闻到的是旧书和湿纸的淡淡气味，就像在阁楼翻老相册。然后一口下去，果味十足——干无花果和酒渍无花果的甜香，混着柠檬草和柠檬花蜜的清新，整个人都精神了。😋 接着有蜂蜡和蜂花粉的感觉，滑溜溜的，滑入所有蜂巢般的东西里，带着点花生酱和香蕉蛋糕的温暖。回味不长，但细腻得不可思议，像蜂蜜蛋糕和金色的蜂蜜在嘴里化开。 偶尔还飘出点淡淡的烟草和薄荷，加上一小撮盐，平衡了甜味。整体就像个很乖的熟成桶，让人舒服极了。🌿

Blimey, this is a proper treat! 👃 On the nose, I'm getting peanut butter mixed with old books, kinda like wine-soaked figs – very signature. Taste-wise, there's banana cake with honey tart, a tiny pinch of salt, and a hint of rum. The finish isn't very long but of infinite delicacy, with little waxy notes and faint notes of damp paper. Vintage English blond tobacco comes through, alongside lively, aromatic little herbs. Good grief, how utterly delicious this was! 😋 It's all delicate and gold, with lemon blossom honey and mirabelle, some beeswax and pollen. Typical of a great hoggie that knew how to behave. Absolutely lovely! 🍯

A proper dram for a rainy afternoon, this. You know, it starts kinda gently — like honey tart with a bit of that wine-soaked fig sweetness, then suddenly you’re thinking of banana cake and a tiny pinch of salt. Oddly comforting. There’s a hint of old books and damp paper in there, but not in a bad way — more like opening a well-loved library book. And then, poof! It just glides into all the beehive stuff: beeswax, mirabelle, a little herbal lift that’s actually quite lively. Finish isn’t very long but has this infinite delicacy… maybe some vintage English blond tobacco at the very end. A whiff of rum cask, I reckon. 🍯 Almost like a great hoggie that just knows how to behave, really.
