Time for another episode of “Is it Scotch?” thanks to the generous @contemplativefox! Golden. Slightly dusty malt and tropical fruit. Grilled pineapple, guava, honey, ginger, plum and earthy barley. Hint of coriander, peat, and citrus. No ash, iodine, no brine. The barbecue smoke, brine and higher ABV make themselves known immediately on the palate before the transition to the grilled citrus fruits from the nose. There is still honey and heather in between the smoke and fruit. The finish isn’t profound but is rather lengthy and pleasant with funky, soft peat, brine and grilled pineapple. Reveal - Loch Lomond 12. Tasting this I was wondering if it could be Campbeltown. This could be a Springbank 10 competitor, and at a bargain basement price from what I understand. This is a bit fruitier and slightly harsher though. Still, I could absolutely daily this. Automatic buy if I ever see one of these.
