Awards/Reviews

93 Points - Whisky Advocate

"This delivers a highly distinctive combination of fruity, savory, and spicy aromas: damson, cherry, aromatic smoke, and pastrami, with increasing peatiness, backed up by cake mix, dried peel, pink peppercorn, nutmeg, and licorice. The mouthfeel changes gears from sweet to oily, beginning with orange peel, lime, watermelon, lemon curd, toffee, and sherbet, then pivots to peat smoke, orange fondant, red apple, gingerbread, and peppery base notes."

“Gorgeous…there’s a purity about the whole thing…it’s robust and honest. I think fans of Springbank, Old Pulteney, Talisker and Bruichladdich will get a lot out of this You should definitely get yourself a bottle.” -Malt Review

"This is an excellent whisky, combining nuance and complexity with a light, fragrant style. The smoke, while noticeable, is less pronounced and just sort of lingers in the background. This combination of sweetness and dry pepper, combined with a light, fragrant whisky, makes for an excellent aperitif and will also blend well in mixed drinks. The perfect whisky when you want a hint of Islay malt without being blown over."
