Complex and delicious. Nuanced dark chocolate and candied fruit aromas lead into a mildly peaty palate underpinned by rich baked apple, fig, and toasted almond. Bright ginger sparkle and lemon peel enliven the smoky exhale.
Malty and cereal-scented aromas, with notes of light fruit, vanilla, oak and flowers, hints of herbs. Noticeably sweet on the palate … nuances of lemon zest provide freshness. The harmonious finish is warming, savoury and malty.
On the nose, malty sweetness and fruity notes with a hint of mint and floral hints. Distinct sweetness on the palate, powerfully malty and some lemon zest on top. Some pepperiness in the finish, long sweetness and some citrus candy.
Light cereal-scented, heather, pear and lots of vanilla in the stimulating aroma. A deep attack on the palate, followed by mint and light smoke. Fine cereal-scented character in the long finish. Very harmonious.
The aroma is characterised by dried plum and savoury wood, with some wood smoke active in the background. The basic savoury tendency remains on the palate, with a malty sweetness heralding the finish.
Harmonious combination of hazelnut cream, dried apricot and smoky dry wood. Very juicy and full-bodied on the palate, the dried fruit is very much present. Finely marked finish with a long aftertaste.
An almost minty freshness in the first olfactory impression, followed by caramel malt, dried fruit and pink pepper on the nose. Beautiful complexity on the palate with grassy notes, dry wood and a creamy finish.
Fine vanilla on the nose, as well as dried heather and camomile. A slightly medicinal note with subtle smoke lends depth to the overall impression. Toffee is initially noticeable on the palate, followed by increasingly intense savouriness.
Strong maritime notes, a hint of herbs and roasted coffee form the powerful aroma. The impression is confirmed on the palate, even if a little more complexity would be good. Long finish with herbal notes.
Fragrant and fruity on the nose, with lemon, peach, pea, fresh-sliced melon, honey, vanilla, fragrant grassiness, and hay. … A beautiful balance of flavors with unity, depth, and grace .
The palate features toffee apples, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and oily oak. Pepper, sea salt, and relatively dry oak in the finish are balanced by toffee sweetness.
This has good breadth and hints of honey-nut cornflakes on the nose, … Raspberries lead on the palate, contrasting with the crisp, nutty chaff notes. It's citric and gingery on the finish, but has drive and energy.
From nose to finish this whisky is simply beautiful. The barley really shines through in the nose, … Bright fruity flavors of apple and citrus are followed by sweet, round cereal malts and demerara sugar.
