Peat and blackcurrants perform a pleasant tango, while fruits in brine and salted fruit paste make this unlikely combination work surprisingly well.
A vibrant mix of melon, apricot, peach and guava leads to a pure, barley-driven malt with wax, lemon, mango and a long, refreshing finish.
Lemony and lively, with wee pears, green apples, lime, green pepper and a hint of coconut, this is an elemental malt in the noblest sense.
A lively, sharp whisky with massive chalk, concentrated lemon and green pepper, finishing long, taut and ultra-precise.
The age on this one makes it very smooth and well balanced. Reminds me of a young bourbon without the kick and a bit of fresh greens.
Berry and green-fruit notes give way to astringent oak tannins, ending in a short, bitter finish; the reviewer finds the whisky pleasant but ultimately…
Not my thing. Maybe just stylistically but I was hoping for something a bit less sharp.
