Морской солёно-йодистый купаж с лёгкой торфяной дымностью и винно-фруктовой сладостью (клубника, гранат, ананас, какао). Опытные ставят сдержаннее (82–87), рядовые чаще хвалят как удачную и недорогую покупку.
развернуть подробно
В аромате сходятся два лица напитка: солёно-морская, йодистая линия (морской бриз, соль, соленая карамель, водоросли) и винно-фруктовая сладость от бочек из-под мадеры и красного вина — тёмные и красные фрукты, изюм, засахаренная клубника, ананас, гранат, мёд, воск, какао и лёгкая дымка. Во вкусе преобладают фруктовая сахаристая сладость и дым, аккуратно вплавленный во фрукты, с пряной имбирной остротой, перцем, какао и тёмным шоколадом; отмечают маслянистую текстуру и согревающий, но не жгучий характер. Послевкусие среднее по длине, тёплое, сладко-фруктовое с горчинкой, уходит в тёмное дерево, шоколад и торфяной дым, иногда обрывается солью или заметной горечью.
Хвалят удачное сочетание солода и зерна (Caol Ila, Benriach, зерно North British), гармонию винных бочек, доступную цену (~35–38 евро) и то, что напиток не воспринимается как купаж; для многих это уверенная рекомендация к покупке, фруктово-дымный и лёгкий для питья. Критикуют избыток соли и золы, горькие, дубовые и танинные тона, а также «химические», плесневелые, машинно-смазочные и зерновые оттенки, из-за которых отдельным дегустаторам напиток не подошёл. Оценки согласованы и плотно сидят в диапазоне 82–88; опытные ревьюеры в среднем осторожнее (82–87) и чаще подмечают землистость, минеральность и не самое приятное начало вкуса, тогда как рядовые авторы охотнее ставят 86–88 и говорят о цельности и балансе.
Amber color. Oily structure.

Quite delicate. Maritime. Sea breeze. Salt. Lots of salt. Iodine. Light vanilla, but with salty elements. Salted caramel. Very subtle traces of smoke and ash. Maybe a faint hint of red fruit. On the second nose there is seaweed. There is also more sweetness in the form of caramel. Toffee. Fudge. |

Warming at first. Black pepper. Cocoa. Dark chocolate. Cherries in dark chocolate and alcohol liqueur. After a not very pleasant beginning, the finish turns out to be quite full and a bit more pleasant. Then comes the salt. Quite a long finish. |

It's definitely interesting in some way, but also quite drinkable. The combination works well; the grain is there, but more positive to neutral, never intrusive. The subtle interplay of flavors in the mouth has its own charm; it never gets boring. It's definitely worth trying. This won't be the last Murray MacDavid blend I dare to try.
On the nose, very pleasantly sweet, creamy, caramel, spicy, slightly bitter, stone nuts + nuts with chocolate. On the palate: for me it is bitter, tannic, woody, citrus - something bothers me. Like when washed fruit is bad and there is also a hint of skunk on it. I am glad that we had it on the calendar, but this will not be my favorite. I don't do it often, only when I really don't like whiskey, but distilling it really helps. The whiskey remains more yellow, fresh, honey - 88b - Very Very surprising is that it does not seem like a blend at all. A consumer who likes wine finishes and a "funky" style will be very excited.

medium long, pleasantly warming, sweet with a bit of acidic fruit |
A particularly tasty blend. Everything is correct, the distilleries used, alcohol percentage, malt/grain ratio and certainly not unimportant, the price. A winner!

Sweet BBQ, earthy aroma, red fruit, strawberry jam. We're eating burnt fruit cake. The taste is sweet, distinctly spicy, berry fruit, ash-like, slightly bacony, but it all goes away very quickly.

It's not my cup of coffee but it's true that I would never have guessed that it was a blend. The influence of the Madeira barrels is also quite noticeable. I personally don't smell much smoke in this one.
This is not whiskey at all for me, I smell something that reminds me of a grain character. The whiskey is strong and I find it a bit chemical and some kind of moldy, mechanical character, like some kind of lubricant, very alcoholic.
oily texture; Drinkable for a smoky blend, nothing special for me

This blend is really recommended. Caol Ila, Benriach and the grain from North British harmonize very nicely with each other here. The choice of cask also speaks for itself, Madeira and red wine cask. A very fruity and medium smoky whiskey for a good price (approx. €38) A clear purchase recommendation for me
