(get 5% off with EDINBURGHWHISKY01 discount code!)
Nose: Peat smoke jumps out, followed by cloves, grist and summer fruit. Distinct caramel overtones. Wet wooden floor, damp cellar.
Palate: Smoky again, spicy and oily. Very firm. Sweet liquorice. Extremely satisfying undiluted!
Finish: Early on delivers medicinal tones but quickly transforms into malty, bready heaven.
Overall: Smoky superstar from the mainland, an absolute essential in your cupboard. Unreal value.

hear hear.
A mighty fine malt, indeed. I would adore a sip of the 25-year-old but it is somewhat out of my budget. That being said, I’m sure I saw it behind the bar at the Scotch Whisky Experience when I was last about the place.
You did indeed. I’m sure I can get you a healthy discount on it there.
Cheers, Chris! I’ll just jump on the Number 59 and see you very shortly. If discounts are the order of the day then I shall bring my list, too…
Bought a bottle on your recommendation from master of malt! It arrived today!
I’m completely enjoying it! What great value! Quite well balanced and I think it’s rather autumnal! Pumpkin and roast root veg I get. I really like the level of peatiness!
Great blog, thanks for the recommendation!
Josh: Awesome! Glad to help.
