A peated edition of The English single malt whisky from the English Distillery. A good core of smoke runs through this one, alongside recognisable vanilla-rich notes.
Cinnamon, smoked malt and blueberry muffins.
Full-bodied smoke, paired with light notes of buttered bread and peppery barley.
Stem ginger and lingering bonfire embers.
Certainly has a unique taste that i love. Im no whiskey connoisseur, and dont understand why English Whisky can be judged against Scottish, Irish, or any other Whisky from around the world. It's like comparing wines from different countries and deciding which is the best. To me this whisky has a flavor that for me makes it my current number one choice.
I've been drinking Ardbeg and other Islay malts for over 40 years, this isn't even in the championship. Smokey and nothing else other than an unwanted sweet aftertaste.
Good attempt at a peaty whisky but Islay whisky as expected is better! Decent 43% whisky at a reasonable price. Good whisky for toasting "To the English " Look forward to some more "untraditional" English Whisky in the coming years. Keep up the good work Cheers
It's got smoke but not the flavour of an Islay (or Brora). I'm not sure what they do differently on Islay but no current peated whisky from off island that I've tried seems to have the same depth. The standard expression is much better.
Nice surprise. Very long, sweet and smokey nose, a bit of seaweed on the back. Full and round taste, well balanced - very often there is plain spirit biting the tongue from NAS whiskies but not here. Would definitely try it again. And again.
