这杯有点soft Talisker的感觉,颜色是漂亮的gold,喝起来easy又sweets,带着oranges and grapefruits和fresh juices的鲜劲。 不过它好像在mimic the Scottish peaters a little too much,whiffs of iodine混着oysters的咸鲜,sweet peat和saltiness倒是很明显。 整体不算uncomplicated,almonds的底子上飘着green pepper的青草气,有点像cough medicine那种复杂的草本。 medium的body,bizarrely地联想到Lou Reed could have written a song about它。 年轻版Caol Ila的感觉,从rejuvenated barrel出来的,rather round peat。喝到底有一丢丢wee tad cardboardy。算是个有趣的shortcut。

刚倒出来的那下,甜味先跑出来,像是糖果店那种味道,紧接着是温柔的泥煤,不冲,反而有种湿木头被晒暖的感觉。🌊 稍微晃一下杯,哦?居然有点牡蛎壳和海水的咸鲜,混着一点柑橘皮的清爽,挺有意思的。 喝起来中段有点像一大壶正山小种红茶泡开了,带着点烟熏和隐约的坚果甜,杏仁吧大概是。不过尾巴那里,诶,怎么有点像止咳糖浆的草药感,混着青椒的微辣,有点怪但又不算难喝。 整体不复杂,很顺,像被稀释过的鲜榨果汁。泥煤感比那些重泥煤的酒轻多了,算是悄悄混进去的一点点个性。咸味一直垫在底下,和那点若有若无的纸板味(真的很轻微)一起,反而让回味变得挺清爽。是那种适合没事小酌一杯,不会太费神去琢磨的酒。😊

It's alright, nothing too fancy. Felt like a quick shortcut to the Islay vibe, really. 🌊 At first I got a big whiff of fresh oranges and grapefruit juice, then some rather round peat came in, gentle but present. Like sticking your nose in a large teapot of lapsang souchong. There's a definite brine and saltiness, reminds me of shucking oysters by the sea. Tasting it, the citrus is there with a sprinkle of green pepper. It gets a wee tad cardboardy in the middle, which is interesting. The peat feels young, maybe trying to mimic the Scottish peaters a little too much, but not in a bad way. A hint of almonds and cough medicine near the end. Overall, it's pretty medium and uncomplicated. Good and flawless in its own way, I suppose. The shiest among them three on my shelf tonight. Not mind-blowing, but Lou Reed could have written a song about it – something cool and understated. 🎸

Warm, malty and a bit oaky. Getting soft vanilla, dried fruit and a wee peppery kick at the end 🥃 Feels cosy, like a rainy evening dram.

Just had a sip of this whisky – mate, the nose is all smoky and earthy, like a campfire on a rainy day. 🔥 Then on the tongue, it's smooth caramel with a hint of apple and cinnamon. 😋 Finish lingers, warm and cozy. Perfect for a nightcap! 🥃 Tastes like honey and dried fruits, with a gentle spice kick. Really warms you up inside. 🌟 Ooh, and a bit of vanilla oakiness in there too. Love it! 😊
