Tastes

Tasted at the forest sanctuary, it was a lovely dram. The best of the distiller’s blend, 12 and 18 as would be expected…but while clearly better than the 12, it was only marginaly better than the blend. The learning is no need for the premium and instead by two bottles of the blend.

Light aroma thoigh stronger than the distillers blend. Little bit of burn and notes of carmel.

Light on the nose without a burn, little aftertaste and a smooth draught. Less aroma than the 12, althpugj about the same as the 18.

You can clearly taste the carmel. Thr bar had to pull this bottle outbof the back as no one else had ordered it… matches Distiller only having 2 previous reviews. Not worth reordering.

ポストコイタス, Kyoto. Lovely smell. Head to head woth Chita it won, surprisingly.

Bought by Vita for the Zhanghua trip. Lovely aroma. A bit peppery, smooth going down. The Sherry aroma is clear and sharp

Complex taste

With PC. Too peppery. Didn’t taste the complexity promised by the double cask.

With PC. NL and I both liked this one. Very smooth
