Right, so poured meself a nice dram tonight 🥃
First thing I get on the nose is loads of vanilla and caramel, proper rich stuff. Bit of toffee and dark chocolate too, really warming.
Then on the palate... oof. Got this lovely honey sweetness, some dried fruit comin through - think raisins and figs maybe. There's a wee bit of cinnamon spice there too, not too much though, just enough to keep it interestin 🤌
Mouthfeel is dead smooth, like velvet or summit. Really coats the tongue nicely.
The finish is where it gets proper good though. All that smoky, woody character comes out - like a campfire mixed with orange peel. Lingers for absolute ages, I'm still tastin it now innit 😮💨
Honestly one of those whiskys that just makes you go "ahhh" after every sip. Perfect for a cold night like tonite.
Would deffo recommend for anyone who likes em rich and fruity with a bit of smoke 💯
Notin else to say really, just... *chef's kiss* ✨
