Tasting Notes

Nose

Banana milkshake, honey graham, vanilla frosting, toffee, coffee, sultanas, sea spray — the maritime character immediately evident

Palate

Dried orchard fruit, roasted nuts, baking spice, toffee, salted caramel, green apple sharpness, wax — balanced coast and sweetness

Finish

Long, warm — balanced sweetness and coastal salinity, leather, hay — Wick harbour in a glass

Expert Review

8/10

From Britain's most northerly mainland distillery in Wick harbour. Aged in second-fill bourbon barrels, finished in first-fill Oloroso sherry butts. Non-chill filtered, natural colour, 46%. Maritime character is the house signature. One of the best in its price bracket — brilliantly balanced coastal malt.
