75/ 100Mediocre

This is a young single malt whisky released as a single cask bottling at a natural-feeling strength of 54.5% ABV. At five years old, it is likely to show a fresh, lively style with clear malt character and a more direct cask influence than an older whisky.

Mediocre review score, 77 out of 100
A fun, experimental whisky with lovely citrus notes, but excessive woodiness dominates the palate and makes its character rather puzzling.

Mediocre review score, 75 out of 100
A thick, sweet whisky with heavy breakfast-cereal notes, but very active virgin oak brings wet pinewood, vanilla, glue and even a hint of plastic.
