Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

  • Producer's Notes

    • Appearance

      Pale amber.

    • Nose

      Not obvious to begin with. Planed wood, light toffee, boat varnish. Linseed oil behind, even putty, and later a lychee-like acidity. With water the acidity comes through (acid drops), and the nose sweetens. Still a pleasant fresh woodiness, followed by warm sand. After a while, coffee with brown sugar.

    • Body

      Medium.

    • Palate

      Pleasant; an initial sweetness is quickly overtaken by acidity.

    • Finish

      Dry; medium-length, with an attractive lingering sandalwood aftertaste.

  • Tasting Notes by Dave Broom for Whisky Advocate

    • Diageo's smallest distillery and another that has worm tubs. The character here is grassy: think hay and straw rather than lawn clippings. There's just a hint of cereal behind, and a fresh, roasted spiciness. The palate has good central sweetness where you just get a hint of fruit. Light and fresh, and a good afternoon dram.

    I found this whisky 30 years ago when holidaying in Tayside so decided to visit the distillery. The Whisky Exchange tasting notes are 100% accurate and I've been a fan eversince. This whisky is in my top 10 of single malts and is my go to for a summer drink with ice gently melting in the sun. Can't wait for a hot summer again.

    I bought this as an 80th birthday present for my brother so unfortunately I've not personally tried it. However the personalisation we included on the bottle was there, delivered on time and very well packed. Will get my bro to review after his birthday at the end of November.
