Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

The nose is rich and oaked. There are notes of chewy resinous wood with a well-balanced acidity. Fudge and Madeira with apple crumble with calvados.

Palate

The palate is full and rich with winter spice; cinnamon and cloves, thick oak with developing aridity.

Finish

The finish is long and dry with a peppery note.

Very Good; Needs a Little More to be Great

I completely agree with the below review. There is nothing wrong with it at all, yet it needs something a bit more to make it great. For me, that extra something is a bit more kick (only 40%) and a better mouthfeel, as it is a bit too thin on the palate for me. But overall, great value for the money. Fantastic taste and it is indeed very smooth and mellow (probably aided by the low ABV).

Smooth, but...

This malt greets the nose with a cool spiced apple foreground, with Yule spices and woody notes dancing in the background. On the pallet, I find a mellow yet very present array of spices, brought on with a pleasant oak note. The finish is long pleasant. Overall, a good dram, yet it leaves me wishing for a bit more flavor.

Probably my favourite single malt within this price range. Smooth good burn as it trickles down.
