Teacher's Highland Cream

Amadeirado e cítrico

Overall: Pretty disgusting! Reminds me of the taste of very cheap “cigars” you may buy at corner shops and petrol stations in some countries. The aftertaste lingers. Not easy to describe. In my imagination chewing cigarette butts from an ashtray that has been sitting there for a long time should come pretty close. Even after brushing you teeth you can’t get rid of that awful aftertaste! Tried to give it 0 stars but can’t. So 0.25 it is … because it contains alcohol… A much better option is Black & White (closer to Jameson, plus a bit of a smokey taste).

Nose: light, a little touch of alcohol upfront but manageable, hint of a simple malted grain note somewhat like granola, touch of honey, butterscotch, a little fruitiness, hint of vanilla, maybes a lemon or orange zest note, faint ghostly hint of sea salt air and peat but is a little hard to find. Taste: light and very easy going, honey, fruit, touch of creaminess, ashy peat smoke but not strong and overpowering, some barrel spices, finish is medium leaning more on the shorter side. For the price, this is honestly very good. If the noise and flavors were a little stronger, this would be a really decent sleeper scotch. Give it a try, it’s worth a look for under $20.

A rather bland scotch blend. Just not a lot of flavor to this honestly. At least it’s smooth

Very vanilla and honey heavy. Not a lot of nuance.
