Nose: Dusty sweetness of baking spices and an empty Sun-Maid raisins box with an underlying nuttiness of crushed almonds. Palate: The light character of Lowland malt keeps the palate high and forward, with the nuttiness amplifying and the Bourbon cask vanilla and oak notes rolling around on the tongue. The grain, wood and vanilla fade into a lingering but airy... Finish with echoes of spice and char, and a hint of salt and dessicated limes. No burn to speak of, which is to be expected considering the proof and region. Not particularly complex for an 18 year old whisky. Pleasant, balanced and non-confrontational.Bar tailor

Cotswolds Founder's Choice
Single Malt — Cotswolds , England
Reviewed January 17, 2020 (edited June 6, 2021)Acetone on the nose masks fresh roasted coffee beans, white pepper, tart crust and currant jam. Palate is pleasant to start with the fruits getting stronger but the pepper escalates quickly. Dry, tannic, peppery finish. Adding water tones down the pepper and highlights the pie crust/baked goods.70.92 EUR per Bottle -
