Berry Bros. & Rudd Classic Speyside Blended Malt
Blended Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed March 22, 2023This whiskey is surprisingly light in colour. This whiskey smells of honey from a beehive wafting on a breeze in an orchard. The palate is sweet and creamy, the finish is brown sugar and some sort of cake… like a honey cake with a butter cream frosting. Its delicious! -
Ginger oatmeal rasin cookies on the nose. The palate is peppery and sweet. With a some char and sweet dried cherries. The finish is peppery with some smoke coming through. This one needs some water I think … with some water… apples and raisins come forward to place the ginger behind them. The palate remains… simple. But this whiskeys nose and finish is where it shines. A sweet, char and oily finish with a hint of smoke give this whiskey depth.

Nc'Nean Organic Batch BU06
Single Malt — Highland Scotland, Scotland
Reviewed March 18, 2023 (edited November 25, 2023)Light straw in colour, long slow legs drop down the side of the glass. The nose is sweet cream poured into a tin of peaches sat next to a glass of iodine. The palate has a creamy mouthfeel, it’s baking spices, the finish is sweet crunchy brown sugar crusted on top of an apple pie. A good whiskey, the nose is a bit medicinal for me. Adding some water… opens up the nose for the better. It becomes vanilla cream on apricots and peaches. The palate gets extra sweet and creamy. Definitely a whiskey that’s better with water!
