❄️ Chill Filtered
🖍 Added Colour

Colour 🌈: Dark Amber

Nose👃🏼: Sherry pulls through to chocolate caramel, brown sugar, sweet fruits, watermelon and of course oak

Taste 👅: Vanilla, oak, sweet honey, peat, chilli coated nuts and cherry cola

Finish 🏁 : The spicy nuts fade and leave you with a dry but sweet finish

Thoughts 💭: This whisky had me feeling like I was sucking sweet sap out of the grooves of an oak table. It is incredibly smooth, well balanced and has great complexity to its flavour profile.
This whisky is iconic for a reason, the quality of whisky you get for the cost is fantastic. If you want an everyday sipping whisky this should be one of the first on your list. An absolute delight!

Sláinte!
