    Christmas Cake & Dark Chocolate & Medjool Dates & Cinnamon 8 Year Old

    Festive flavours like Christmas cake, dark chocolate, medjool dates, and cinnamon are the name of the game here. And by "name of the game", we of course mean that Christmas Cake & Dark Chocolate & Medjool Dates & Cinnamon is literally the name of this whisky. What we've got is a superb Speyside single malt Scotch whisky, aged for eight years and boasting a sleighful of Yuletide elements, perfect for enjoying... Well, yeah, it'll obviously be brilliant at Christmas, and any whisky fan will be thrilled to find a bottle under the tree with their name on it. It'll probably be great any time of year if you're a lover of sherried single malt, thinking about it, but it does have that little bit of holly on the label, so, y'know, Christmas and that.

    Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

    Nose

    Dried fruit soaked in sherry, gingersnaps, brandy butter, clove, malty vanilla lingering underneath.

    Palate

    A big helping of orange as it arrives on the palate, soon joined by dark chocolate shavings, golden syrup, cinnamon sticks, dried cherry, dates, and shortbread.

    Finish

    The eponymous Christmas cake notes hang around for a good while afterwards, with hints of citrus oil and chocolate mousse.

    Overall

    Turns out that very descriptive name is... Well, it's very descriptive, and incredibly accurate, too!

    not bad

    A half decent whisky, just not a great one, not as flavourful as the labeling suggests and although it's at the lower end of the price point I've tasted better drams for less pound notes.

    Brilliant for my tastes

    I really like this bottle - it is richer than I was expecting and a very satisfying dram. The proof is spot on, not too weak or too strong for a weekday.

    Adam Major Jan 28, 2022

    Good, not great

    I wasn't convinced by this whisky at first, it didn't quite live up to the promise of its name, but it definitely grew on me. I'd class this as a good bottle to have in the cupboard. Not the first one to grab, not the most interesting, but a good, reliable, sippable drink

    Jeremy C Maiden Jan 25, 2022

    Disappointing

    I was perhaps expecting too much given the price. Whilst I get a slight after taste of dates, the whole Christmas theme was missing for me. Indeed, the base whisky note was no better than a run of the mill blended offering.

    Yummy and just perfect for dark winter nights

    Complex as the name suggests with the fruit, for me, the dominant flavour, which was exactly what I wanted.
