Tastes

Nose: raisins, light spice, water will bring out the chocolate. Palate: raisins, fruit cake and mild spices with a medium short bitter finish. Great balance to an overly sweet dram. Best to keep an opened bottle a week before tasting again and try 1-2 drops of water to bring out more flavours.

Nose: leather followed by caramel, vanilla, fruits and light peat. Taste: peaty, citrusy, honey and fruity. Finish: oaky but short. The finish is too short but the plate makes this a tasty dram.

Nose: Peat followed by black pepper and red chillies and hidden within are sweet honey and fruits. Palate: The heavily charred cask brings out the peat and the strong spiciness of black pepper and red chillies following by honey sweetness and peat. long finish with continuing spiciness. I recommend leaving an opened bottle in your cabinet for a week or more before evaluating the taste. I feel the malt really settles down and becomes more balanced and smooth.

Colour: yellow gold. Nose: Peat bonfire smoke and sea air followed by fruitiness. Palate, intense spiciness followed by sweet peat and finishes with a sharp peppery flavour.
