60- Nose
- Powerfully earthy-fruity perfumes. Fruit skins. Fruit boxes at a market.
- Palate
- Smooth and syrupy. Sweet. Peachy, orangey.
- Finish
- Assertive. Dry. Peach stones. Rind-like. Woody.
- Comment
- I am pleased that this very rare malt has been made available. Ladyburn is a product about which I am frequently asked. Sad to say, its greatest appeal is as a collector's item.

65- Nose
- Varying shades of light oak have not entirely dimmed the malt. Just a tad spirity but pleasant with minimum complexity.
- Palate
- Oak, oak and more (spicy) oak.
- Finish
- Oak.
- Comment
- This has lost all trace of shape and form. Pretty one-dimensional yet easily drinkable thanks to a singular malty sweetness, especially towards the very end. Don't bother opening.
