  1. pianoman scored this whisky 79 points Connoisseur

    • Nose
      Fresh, slightly sour. Dry white wine, sand, loamy soil. Summer grasses, light wood, some disinfectant.
    • Taste
      Malt with a subtle honey sweetness. Chili chocolate, filter coffee, slightly alcoholic. Medium.

    Aroma: floral aromas, nectar, vanilla, barn with grain, dusty sacking, sea freshness somewhere in the distance, a lot of different nuances and half tones, of which wasabi and viburnum jam, just want to explore it for a long time, very nice.
    Taste: malt sweetness, a bit of bitterness from citrus peel, oak bitterness, hint of needles. 50% is not felt.
    Aftertaste: long, mostly taste continues
    Rating: 85
    Bottom line: for eight years, just luck! The aroma is just wonderful! If the taste and aftertaste were following him, there would probably be a masterpiece of eight years, but unfortunately not ...

  3. The Prophet scored this whisky 84 points Expert Junior

    Nose of floral manure (which is positive!), Pleasant mouth, good length. He tells a beautiful story. Good value for money

  4. Issie did not rate this whisky Expert Junior

    • Nose
      Pear, slightly menthol, red floury apple, some wood and something slightly sweet
    • Taste
      light tingling on the tongue, pear and apple again, mild pepper and a very slight bitterness
    • Finish
      pretty short

      Conclusion: no notes but almost a bit boring. Can you have a drink?

  8. Abadon05 scored this whisky 83 points Expert Senior

    Joa nothing spectacular, but not bad either. Just fine, to get a picture of the Brennereicharakter.
    • Nose
      For me the typical Laddie nose: a smell of cheese crackers with salt and vanilla.
    • Taste
      Vanilla, lemon, a grassiness
    • Finish
      Salt and vanilla with medium-long finish

  9. maurisso scored this whisky 83 points Expert Senior

    Orange peel.

  10. ctu scored this whisky 82 points Connoisseur

    It was strange at first the unpeated style, despite the 8 years old it was all right.
    • Nose
      Flowers, honey, vanilla, citruses, kiwi. Grape and white wine.
    • Taste
      Oily. BIg dose of citruses. Acacia honey, green apple, pepper. Wine and vinegar.
    • Finish
      Long, dry, sour, fruity.
