Wolfburn Morven Single Malt

Very well done. Smoky hint of peat. Floral on nose. Easy drinking scotch at 92 proof.

Summerton Virtual Whisky Festival sample. First off, this is an extremely easy whisky to drink. There’s a little peat in there (10ppm) and some coastal saltiness. It doesn’t have the wilder tastes of some of the Islay heavy hitters, but they have used some ex-Laphroaig Quarter Casks and you can certainly taste it throughout. The finish on this one brings out more smoke, some spiciness and an aftertaste of ginger and chilli that stays for ages. Another delicious dram from Wolfburn.

Лёгкий торф и дым. Ещё какая-то не очень приятная маслянистость. Нормально, но ещё раз бы я не взял

Light upfront smoke. Strong finish. Very light color. Hidden grape.

This one is not much better then its sibling “Northland”. The peat gives it some character but sadly enough I don’t get much more except the peat and the light fruitiness of the base “Northland”. Sadly the peat also is not very pleasant and feels misplaced. It really needs some age, that might help it.

Nose: A fairly faint hint of smoke. Apple? Grapes? Flavour: Gentle smoke/peat flavour. Slight spice. Finish: Stays with you for a fair amount of time, with a hint of both spice and smoke.
