Member Ratings and Notes

Adam

Nose is nearly non-existant, difficult to detect faint waves of cinnamon and oatmeal. Smooth, weak body. Finish is the only interesting part, smoke and spice comes rolling in in a pleasant wave.

Chris

Oily, light peat, nothing else.

Dave

Lightly peaty and that sweet Irish tang that is hard to hide.....Not great, not bad.

Ries

n: faint nose of light smoke (like burnt paper), more of breakfast oatmeal with black raisins. I get a hint of vanilla and a light malty citrus wax.

t: Sweet wet grass with some dry wood smoke. This does have a nice oily mouthfeel and an easy to drink sweet taste. Middle is back to the waxed citrus. Finishes with wood char and hint of burnt butter.

[C+/B- tasting the 2014 version]

Andy

A thin oil mouthfeel that quickly developes into a one dimensional hit of peat that clearly deviates from the scottish tradition. Not necessarily in a good way, but it's fine to drink.
