| Machrie Moor is the name of a large peat bog featuring ancient stone megaliths. TASTING NOTE: Machrie Moor is the first peated single malt to be released by the Isle of Arran distillery ... Nutty peat, spicy malt and lemon on the slightly savoury nose. Sweeter, soft fudge and vanilla notes when water is added. Vibrant on the palate, with lots of citrus fruit. A bonfire smokiness develops steadily, with spice, nuts and plain chocolate through to the relatively long finish, which features a persistent, citric note. Spicier and more oaky when water is added. Score: 3 1/2 stars (out of 5) (Gavin D. Smith & Tom Cannavan, whisky-pages.com, Undated) |
