Bladnoch Samsara 70cl Whisky
Price Drop-£2.55
Bladnoch Samsara
The first of three single malts from Bladnoch released in early 2017 to celebrate the reopening of this Lowland distillery. Although it doesn't carry an age statement, it's said to be made up of whiskies that are a minimum or 8 years old and well as older, rarer whiskies. First fill Californian red wine and bourbon casks were used for maturation, whilst 'Samsara' appropriately enough means 'rebirth'.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Quite concentrated, fruit compote, with plums, vanilla and orange blossom.
Palate
A sweet winey start, then drying slightly before more plums and vanilla flavours, some citrus and a malty core. Nicely structured.
Finish
Mellow and winey with a spicy, lingering tail.
