I had the chance to try a 10cl sample from this very new Lowland distillery. If i am not mistaken the first whiskies from them hit the markets just recently, by december 2018. The bottle actually says "Dream to dram".
Bottled at 46%abv a nice strength for a Lowland.
On the nose, it is beautiful. Oranges. Dim chocolate. Tangerine. Beautiful aroma right from the start. A refined malted barley. Crushed almonds. Citric punch.
On the palate, it is your typical Lowland whisky: Orange caramel and Chocolate.
Pretty nice taste. Oranges reminded me of Glenmorangie Original. Dulce de leche, and some citrus notes.
Aftertaste is well crafted. Cocoa powder, Milk chocolate, Dulce de leche. A hint of ginger spice that surrounds the whole sweetness.
Overall a very complex dram for a lowland. Very enjoyable. Citric and sweet. Hints of hay also present. 88 over 100, i foresee good things for this distillery.
