Right, here goes… just my tuppence worth on this dram. Nose is like stewed orchard fruits 🍎🍐 – think slightly burnt apple crumble with a dollop of custard. Getting a whiff of toffee pennies too, and a bit of worn leather armchair. Palate comes through waxy and coating. Honey’s there, but a dark, almost treacly sort. Then a prickle of baking spice – nutmeg, clove. 👌 Quite chewy, with a spoonful of marmalade bitterness on the back end. Finish lingers with oaky warmth and a whisper of old polished wood. Tiny hint of smoke, like a just-snuffed candle. Proper comforting sipper for a drizzly evening. 🌧️🥃 No bad thing at all.
