I’m still trying to understand this dram. Is it boring or does it perfectly embody the unique character of the lowlands the way it is supposed to? Initially underwhelmed, the gentle nature of this dram caught up with me and body-slammed me onto the soft grasses of the northern Lowlands. Oaky, sweet, full of vanilla and cinnamon, at first you think there’s very little finish until you realize lying in a meadow chewing on a piece of grass for 10 minutes IS the finish. I loved it.
