Member Ratings and Notes

Sku

The nose has heavy, sharp peat. The palate has sweet peat notes and then gets a bit sour. It has a great peaty finish on the nose. This is very BenRiach with its sharp peat notes. It's a bit one note, as the peated BenRiachs tend to be, but it's quite decent.

Andy

N: kilcholmanny. Red hots. Orange slice candy.

P: cinnamon sticks. Very cinnamon really. Bit of tar and prunes. B/B+

Fuji

N: Diesel, iodine, pretzel chip, fresh cut lumber and damp wood

P: Strong peat and BBQ notes initially followed by alot of soap

F: Pear, apple and smoke on the finish

The soap on this ruins an otherwise pleasant malt.

Ries

n: charred cherry fruit roll ups, vegetal earthy peat, Vanilla Coke-nice peat to this with a red jam nose and hint of cinnamon.

t: damp earth and over ripe berries. Balsa wood and damp char. Sour brine with a bit of bar soap in finish. Mostly peat with a bit of burnt red berry.
