Pale gold in the glass, quite soft and round. I get plums, stewed peach, apple peel and a bit of green tomato jam 🍑 There’s a gentle honeyed custard thing, with praline/Nutella sweetness. Slightly sour at times, with green oak and unripe fruit making it feel a tad disjointed. Medium finish, soft but a bit uncertain.

Lovely cosy dram 🥃 Bit of honey, soft spice, and a gentle oaky warmth. Feels smooth, comfy, and just right for a quiet evening. Slightly fruity too, in a nice easy-going way.

Quite cosy this one — a bit of honey, soft spice, some dried fruit and a wee smoky edge 🥃 Feels warm and mellow, not too fussy. Nice for a quiet evening, maybe with a splash of water. Slightly oaky at the end, in a good way.

Right, let’s get this down while it’s still fresh. first proper nosing and I’m gettin’ a right waft of stewed orchard fruits, like apples and pears caramelised in butter 🍎🍐. There’s a shy puff of peat smoke too, not a bonfire, more like a damp tweed jacket after a walk in the Highlands. sipping neat now… ooft, that’s a wee bit of a spice tingle at the tip of me tongue, cracked black pepper and maybe some crystalised ginger? Then it sort of rolls into this lovely malty middle, kinda biscuity, like digestives dunked in earl grey cuppa ☕️ the finish is where it sings mind. medium long, very warming, a cheeky hint of dark choclate and a drift of woodsmoke that just lingers. not sharp at all, quite smoothe in the end. overall, it’s like a comfy armchair by the fire but in a glass. A proper autumnal sipper, that. 🥃✨ hits different with a splash of water too btw — opens up more of that honeyed nuttiness. absolute belter for a quiet night in.

Oh crikey, this one's got a right lovely nose 👃 – all toffy and a bit of peaty smokiness. On the sip, it’s smooth as silk with hints of green apple and a gentle spice. Finish lingers like a warm hug on a chilly evening. Really moreish, innit? 🥃😊 A bit of woody notes come through, but not too heavy. Perfect for a quiet night with a book or mates.
