Tasting Notes

Nose

Dried fruit, raisins, stewed apple, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, gentle peat smoke, smoked sea salt, honey — smoky and complex for a blend

Palate

Smoky and woody — pear sweetness, cookie spice, salt, oily mouthfeel, sherried fruitcake richness meets Islay maritime peat

Finish

Spicy, lingering, buttery warmth — the Islay component making this blend genuinely special

Expert Review

7.5/10

John Glaser's peated blended Scotch — 67% malt (Highland, Speyside, Islay) and 33% Lowland grain. Ex-bourbon, first-fill sherry, and new French oak. The Islay component gives it distinctive peat unusual for a blend at £32. Puts many big-name blends to shame. The Whiskey Jug: 85/100.
