Tastes

A subtle nose brings to mind a hint of honey. With the first taste, honey, a bit of leather, and a gentle glow of alcohol leads to a lingering finish. Not a terribly complex dram, but a pleasant sipping spirit nonetheless...

A subtle nose gives little away. With the first taste, light floral notes give way to baked goods with a bit of fire reading into a slow finish. All in all, an interesting dram produced in an interesting way.

The nose gives away little with this spirit. As the first sip hits the tongue, there is a bit of fruit, and then...the palate is ignited as if by napalm, obliterating all other notes until the finish which, appropriately, is predominated by smoke. Sigh. I believe the folks at Copper Fox are highly skilled, and capable of great things. But this dram just doesn't measure up.

Where to begin? The nose gives away little of what is to come. That first taste explodes into an abundance of flavors: fruit, and an exquisite burn that leads into a slow, glorious warm finish. What an engaging dram!

A slightly sweet nose leads into a bit of fruit and honey, with complexity following quickly—a tiny bit of smoke and leather coupled with a slight burn. The finish is gentle and lingering. Quite enjoyable!

With a delicate nose reminiscent of a floral bouquet, there's no surprise when a first taste brings to mind fruit and flowers. The finish is equally delicate, leaving a bit of pear at the end. A light, enjoyable dram that doesn't make you work too hard.

A slightly sweet taste of... melon?...is followed by an earthy, slightly smoky/peaty finish. I really wish there was something more to it, but was disappointed. There are better places to spend my "21 year-old Scotch" money than this.

Honey, a bit of a burn, and apple cider vinegar come to mind at first taste, but it all mellows into a slightly smoky finish that ends with Dad's pipe tobacco. Certainly a pleasant dram.

A taste starts with a subtle nose. The first taste brings a bit of brine which moves quickly into a luscious burst of honey. The finish brings the smallest amount of peat and a lingering warmth that primes you for the next sip.

The initial taste is gentle, with a hint of peat. Cedar comes to the fore, and the finish fades gracefully to a warm glow. A simple, unpretentious dram that never disappoints.
