TASTING NOTE: An enticing mix of fresh fruits, honey, almonds and vanilla on the nose. The palate is initially fresh and floral, with developing maltiness and a hint of ginger. Fuller bodied than the ‘Classic,’ with more toasted malt and oak characteristics giving a deeper resonance. Comparatively lengthy in the finish, with nuts, raisins and a final dry oak note, which is sweetened by the addition of water. Another well balanced, very attractive addition to the ranks of Lowland malts. Score: 4 stars (out of 5) (Gavin D. Smith & Tom Cannavan, www.whisky-pages.com, Undated) |
