Tasting Notes & Reviews

Expert analysis and tasting impressions

1#1

Right then mate, cracked open a bottle tonight 🥃. Nosh smells crisp, got hints o' lemon zest + vanilla bean 🍋. Sip comes across relly soft, not scratchy at all. Feels like thick syrup on the palet... er, tongue. 🤦‍♂️ Sweet spice kicks in later, nice peppery undertones. Finish hangs about nicely, leaves u wanting more. Proper well rounded, worth a try imho 👌.

2#2

Right then, had a wee dram earlier 🥃. Nose is proper smoky, like a peat fire 🌫️. Taste hits sweet first, hint of toffee 🍬. Then it gets spicy, warms the chest nicely. Finish is long, bit dry on the tounge. Definetly comforting stuff. Lovely colur too, golden like honey 🍯. Would have another glass tbh.

3#3

Right, just had a dram of this. 🥃 Smells proper sweet, hint of honey and vanila. 🍯 On the palate it's smooth, mild with some fruit. Finish is warm, like a cozy fire side. 🔥 Quite enjoyable really, could have anothr glass. Goes down easy on a cold evening. Cheers! 🍻

4#4

Hmm... this tastes like... a walk through autumn woods, ya know? 🌳 First hit of warm honey, then some dried apple slices. Smoky but not too heavy, like a distant bonfire. Oh! There's vanilla cream lingering at the back, lovely. Kinda spicy finish - cinnamon maybe? Sweetens up after a minute, like toffee. Really nice for a chilly evening. 👍

5#5

Right, first whiff is proper smoky, like a bonfire night but sweeter... get some vanilla and honey, maybe? 😋 Taste-wise, it’s a bit spicy, cloves or cinnamon, then this lovely creamy toffee comes through. Oaky too, feels like proper aged stuff. Finish is long and warming, with a hint of dried fruit. Pretty moreish, mate. 🥃👍 It’s not harsh at all, real smooth. Could have a few of these, easy.
