Right then, let’s have a wee taste. First sniff is all warm honey 🍯 and stewed pears, wi’ a bit of dried fig. There’s a malty backbone, like fresh baked bread, but then a soft wisp o’ peat creeps in—barely there, just enough. Sippin’ neat, it’s surprisingly smooth. Caramal apple and a touch of lemon zest, then a prickle of white pepper. The oak sits gentle, like an old dusty cupboard, in a good way. Mid-palate you get this lovely vanilla cream 🍦, almost custardy. A whisper of smoke at the back, then a flash of tropic fruit—maybe mango? The finish is medium-long, leaving a drifty, spicy warmth wi’ a tiny salty tang. Not a sherry bomb, more of a balanced dram. Proper easy drinker. Aye, that'll do nicely. 🥃✨
