Robert Burns Single Malt

By far the single worst Highland single malt I've tasted. Overly peaty with a finish that's strong on leather and tobacco. I've seen other's getting fruity tastes out of this bottle and I don't see how. I'd rather pay the few extra dollars for a Glen Moray 12 year than drink this swill.

Funny enough I popped into the Whisky shop in St Paul's London on Burns night to purchase a nice dram for My Dad and I, that day they had 2 reps in from Arran Distillery showcasing some some of the collection, I was blown away with this...smooth honey and orange Tang with a chilli style warm heat follow on... To find out a whisky this good has come from the youngest distillery in Scotland blew me away..looking forward to the 25 plus editions to come!

Another great whisky by the Arran. A very smooth whisky with a gentle bit of sweetness.

Burns.


It's the wee mice at Mosgiel,
that ate me out of house
and home.

Were it not for them, I’d
be farming still.

Ah, Dumfries with the jolly
beggar's and me the
excise man.

A taxing job to say the least,
chasing Tam O'Shanter
in the hills and down
Sweet Afton’s way.

Holy Willie's prayer gave
no forgiveness, but a
dram would set him free.

Very strong alcohol fume, but the pear and custard palate are there. Factor in $27 CAD this is by far better than Dewar's or Ballantine's of the same price and head-to-head with Chivas 12 and JW Black.

So light and smooth that fulfills the taste buds succinctly.

One of my favorites. Understated yet complex. Price was unbelievable.

The taste of this great malt makes me feel like a military strategist , professor of medicine

After many decades of drinking - with no apologies for that, this is certainly the finest single malt I have ever tasted.
The tasting notes by 'the chaps at Master of Malt' are concise, respectful of the nose and less than indulgent of the soft warmth and almost Pasteis de Nata (Portuguese Custard Tarts), caressing of the palette when this is presented to the taste buds properly, i.e.. with just a touch of water to open out the flavours.
10 out of ten every time. ..... and there have been many times since I discovered the team at Master of Malt. Thank you.

Our neighbour brought over a bottle of of Robert Burns single malt he had purchased in Bordeaux for me to taste. I didn't know the brand but greatly enjoyed the tasting, A distinctive flavour although quite different to the malts of Islay,which I have enjoyed since holidaying there. Now another malt to add to my favourites.

Nice, light, summer day dram. Pear and apple really stick out to me when nosing and tasting this one.

I got a bottle of Robert Burns as a Christmas present. Since I collect single malt whisky, I was awfully glad to get this new taste. My wife, who never liked whisky before, is sharing the bottle with me at the moment, be it with wee sips. Great dram, fresh and fruity. We both love the finish. Try it with a wee chunk of chocolate. It enforces the vanilla taste.

Simply on of the most enjoyable whisky’s I have ever tasted. Smooth, mild, and pleasant to the pallet. A wonderful addition to any party!!
