Taster

Nose: Liquorice Allsorts, strawberry laces and ripe kiwi fruit.

Palate: Toffee apples, honey glazed ham and some cloves. Chopped basil and some cinnamon comes in.

Finish: Sweet, honey and nuts.

Comment: Very nice, well balanced and subtle enough for a whiskey of this style.

Score: 7.8

Taster

Nose: Dried hay and meadow flowers, soft toffee, vanilla and camp coffee.

Palate: A grassy, minty note leads, with some vanilla sweetness, Granny Smith apple pieces, and condensed milk, with a squirt of honey.

Finish: Creamy cereals intertwine with a slight sweet white wine note and fresh oak.

Comment: Another whisky of personality. The floral notes aren’t quite as pronounced and succulent as before but there’s plenty going on here to get excited about.

Score: 7.9
