Right, so had a wee dram last night and here's what I reckon... 🥃 First thing - that lovely golden colour in the glass, proper inviting innit. Nose: Get this beautiful honey and vanilla thing going on, like walking past a bakery on a Sunday morning. Touch of smoke too, subtle like. Bit of dried fruit hiding in there as well. 🍯 Palate: Oh blimey, so smooth! That warm, creamy mouthfeel just coats yer tongue proper nice. Getting some toffee and apple notes, maybe a hint of cinnamon spice. The smoke comes through more now but it's not overpowering, just... settled in there y'know? Finish: Nice and long, leaves this lovely warm glow. Bit of dark chocolate at the end which I weren't expectin tbh. The oak comes through gentle like. Overall feelin? Just one of those whiskies that makes you go "ahhhh" after the first sip. Comforting, like a warm blanket on a proper grey British day. Would absolutely have another. Maybe two. 😅 Honestly, it's the kind of dram you'd want to sit with by the fire and just... enjoy. No rush, just proper savouring it. Defo a keeper in the collection! 👌
