Nose: A classic Highland charm — pleasantly sweet and well-balanced. Sultanas, orange chocolate, Nutella, banana, and dried persimmon, underpinned by a touch of fruit syrup and chamomile tea. The aromas are harmoniously integrated, with no single note overpowering the others.
Palate: A waxy mouthfeel. It starts off exactly as the nose suggests. Think of a cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows, layered with notes of vanilla, cocoa powder, and soothing honey lozenges. A squeeze of lime sneaks in briefly, followed by a wave of spicy tannins.
Finish: Medium in length, with soft mocha, oak, and a lingering minty tingle.
Final Thought: This whisky is more like the charming girl next door than the glamorous diva on stage. It’s easygoing, smooth, and perfect for a laid-back evening. The cocoa notes earn extra points, especially for coffee lovers like me. That said, its tasting experience reminds me a bit of Deanston 18. So, the question is: would you rather splurge on a $220 non-age statement whisky or go for an 18-year-old whisky at nearly half the price? I’ll leave that decision up to you 🥃
Girl with Cask Strength Score: 87/100.
