# 🥃 My Tasting Notes Right, so poured meself a wee dram tonight and... blimey, that's lovely. First thing that hits ya is this sweet, creamy warmth - like proper vanilla custard almost. Then there's a bit of smokiness creepin in, not too heavy like, just enough to make it interestin 🤔 Getting some fruity notes too? Maybe apple or pear, somethin like that. Quite smooth goin down, not burny at all which is a bonus innit. The finish is nice and warm, lasts a good while. Slight spice at the end, maybe some cinnamon? Proper cozy dram for a chilly evenin this one ☺️ 8/10 would recomend to a mate 👍

Right then, poured myself a dram of this new one. 🥃 First whiff... got that lovely, sweet honey note right away. A bit of orchard fruit, maybe a pear? Then comes this deeper, warm bit. Like, sort of a gentle toasty oak, not sharp at all. The taste's proper complex, innit. Starts with that malty sweetness, then this wonderful wave of something... oh, it's a bit like a spiced orange peel. And just a hint of wood smoke at the very end, like a distant bonfire on a crisp night. 🍯🪵🔥 It's got a real good warmth to it, but not burny. Lingering finish, sort of sweet and woody. Really enjoyable, this. Proper sipping stuff. Makes you want another, slowly. 🍂

Right then, had a wee dram tonight. 🥃 Nose is lovely, sweet like honey and pears. Hits the palate soft... no burn really. Just warm spice. Makes me think of sitting by the fire on a rainy day. 🍂 Finish is long enough to make you smile. Definately a good one for relaxing. Cheers! 🍻
