Tasting Notes & Reviews
Expert analysis and tasting impressions
Just tried this one. Wow! 🍯 Sweet and smooth, like honey with a bit of spice. Getting some vanilla and maybe apple? 😋 So easy to sip, really pleasant warmth. 👍 A bit smoky on the finish, but not overpowering. Love it! ❤️ (English as spoken in the UK)
Oh bloody hell, this one's lush 😍 Big hit of vanilla straight away — like custard on your nan's trifle. Then comes the caramel, warm and buttery, proper lovely. Got a bit of smoke sneakin' in too 🌫️ not too heavy mind, more like a cozy bonfire kinda vibe. Sweet but with a gentle kick of spice at the end. Easy sipper this one honestly, smooth as you like 👌 Fruit notes poppin' thru aswell — pear and maybe some apple? Very pleasant init. Overall? Smashin' drop for a quiet night in 🥃 wouldn't say no to another glass like
Right, so this one's got a proper nose on it! Get lots of malty biscuits and a bit of creamy toffee first off, then some stewed apple sneaks in. 🍎🍯 On the sip, it's all honey and a touch of gentle oak spice, maybe a hint of vanilla pod? Finishes with this lovely warm, slightly waxy feel that just lingers. Really sippable. 😊 Definitely one for a quiet evening. A bit of a snuggler, this. 🥃
So, had a dram tonight. 🥃 First sniff: proper fruity, like stewed apples and a bit of pear. Then got this lovely malty sweetness, like biscuits. On the palate, it's smooth, almost creamy. The flavour hits with some caramel and vanilla, maybe a touch of orange peel. 🍊 Finish is medium, with a gentle warmth and a hint of oak spice. Quite moreish, really. Solid stuff. 👍 A bit of a glamour pour, this one. 🍂
