(Good Spirits Company, Glasgow. Virtual Whisky Tasting Saturday 25th July 2020).
Parcel Number 3. Made from a batch of just 4 hogsheads.
Nose: Acetone, sherbet lemons, pear drops, strawberry bonbons.
Palate: MIlky smooth, lemon sherbet and strawberry.
Finish: Slightly numbing on the finish and leaving a lovely sweet pear drop aftertaste.
This has a lovely, almost waxy mouthfeel. It feels somewhat old fashioned and has a load of childhood tastes like lemon drops, sherbet and strawberry sweets. This is a lovely dram.
Out of the 6 drams on the tasting, this achieved 25% of the vote for favourite which made it joint first place, but the common consensus was that all 6 were really too close to call. I placed this as first place. I enjoyed it enough to buy a bottle during the tasting!
