Sam,
Ok. Not super memorable. Stronger than expected burn given initial sweetness.

Hard to find a particular flavor.
 
Antti
Antti,
It is an outstanding, complex, Welsh Single Malt Whisky that has an aromatic birth with notes of Vanilla fudge, apple & citrus zest; while a rich life adds notes of pepper, ginger, malt, tangerine, crème brûlée & fresh biscuits; that leads to a spicy & roasted death with a hint of spice cake & rye.
 
Brendan
Brendan,
Light apple nose. Sweet vanilla on the taste, with a little apple underneath. A little spicy as well. Definitely on the sweeter side overall but the light color certainly reflects into a light, approachable whisky. Absolutely enjoyable overall.
 
Marguerite
Marguerite,
Delicious, very vanilla forward and smooth
 
Ross
Ross,
Smooth, fruity. A great summer dram. You could probably put it in a fruity cocktail.

Light color, light and smooth taste. Sweet and easy to drink.
 
John
John,
Spice it there but after that I feel like I’m missing any complexity. Fine to drink, but not getting much after initial spice hit.
 
Stefanie
Stefanie,
Spicy, sweet..missing something. Would go well with or after dessert but too sweet and citrus alone. I am not a citrus person.
 
Todd
Todd,
Citrus, vanilla and spicy. Kind of like rye spicy, but easy to drink.
 
Liz
Liz,
I liked the spicier side of the scotch. It’s like a rye had a baby with a scotch.
 
Stephen
Stephen,
A little on the spicy side, maybe it was the combination of the spice and the citrus, too much for me.

Michael,
Nice simple sweet spice...good for dessert

Not extraordinary about this one
 
Victor
Victor,
Light gold color. Nose is light with apple, citrus, and malt. Palate is light with apple, tangerine, some spice, and a cake flavor. Finish is light with some spice and fairly short.
 
Jeff
Jeff,
Thin but very sweet with mild spice. Poor nose though.
 
Ryan
Ryan,
Mild nose with a background of sweetness, taste is mostly vanilla with mild spice at the end and a bit of a bite going down. Solid and enjoyable but the youth is apparent
 
Matthew
Matthew,
Sweet and good but has a bit of burn needs water
 
Matthew
Matthew,
Color is very light, pale straw. Nose is light and clean, with notes of green apple and faint banana, maybe some flashes of citrus. First sip is smooth and clean, with subtle dried fruits and vanilla flavor. As you take more sips, notes of malt and creme are noted. The finish is moderate in length, with the mild black pepper and more fruit lingering. Overall, nothing displeasing, decent finish, just maybe a little too clean, not exactly exciting.

Uros,
One of my favourites. A great Whisky that's so like Scotch, but has an unintelligible note you can't find anywhere else. Smooth, very flavourful. The stuff of legend indeed.

Absolutely handsome. Always have to have a bottle in the house for sharing with friends. Makes a fantastic tasting gift too!
