Nose: Surprisingly light orange, apple and cereal with fragrant floral notes. Water makes no difference. Palate: Sweet, crisp arrival with toasted marshmallow and digestive biscuits. The development comes quickly and brings spicy, sharp notes of ginger and cinnamon. The texture is good but not heavy. Water makes it more creamy and softens the palate overall. Finish: Medium/Short. Brisk, sharp, spiced vanilla and cereal. This is a limited edition of the 15 year old that was matured exclusively in refill sherry casks and released as a distillery exclusive run of 1,000 bottles. It was created to commemorate the opening of Edinburgh Rugby’s DAM Health Stadium. Agreeable when neat, water does not change the nose but softens the palate, however it is not required. It’s a competent single malt and although there’s nothing about it that is objectively above average I’m giving it 3 stars as less than that seems subjectively wrong. “Above Average” : 80/100 (3 stars)
