Dram 2 - Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 - I'd be over the moon if given a bottle of this, and would probably drink it fairly quickly. Revisit - Bakewell tarts has pushed this to a 4 #BlindDrams
Dram 5 - Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 - I'd be over the moon if given a bottle of this, and would probably drink it fairly quickly. A touch too sweet for a five but again bloody close. #BlindDrams
Dram 5 - On the palate: Everything from the nose is here. High abv but not burning, making my mouth water! Chilli Spice Honey, chopped peanuts. #BlindDrams
Dram 5 - On the nose: Blood orange, Bonfire, pumpkin spice, hay This should be a halloween release. #BlindDrams
Dram 4 - Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 - I'd be over the moon if given a bottle of this, and would probably drink it fairly quickly. Easy 4 which could easily slide up..... #BlindDrams
Dram 4 - On the palate: Lovely rich px cask, hints of oloroso with chocolate and cocoa, black forest gateau, Barrel char, slight tannin, Blackcurrant & Licorice sweets. Fuck yes #BlindDrams
Dram 4 - On the nose: Cherry Drops, Iced Buns, Yellow Opal Fruits, Shallot, Peach Haribo. Remins me massively of Glenmorangie Milsean #BlindDrams
Dram 3 - Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 - I'd suck the sweaty toes of a senior brand executive for the opportunity to have a single drop more of this. For sheer craziness, high abv and general awesomeness... a five! #BlindDrams
Dram 3 - On the palate: Weird and Yummy! Super Fruity, rich meat note, almost smoke but not quite, barrel char. Worcestershire Sauce. #BlindDrams
Dram 3 - On the nose: Super sweet wine like note there, almost like a grapa, could this be a Sauternes cask? Oxo cube thrown into the mix. #BlindDrams
Dram 1 Nose: Lemon, lavender, rose water, paint tin freshly cracked! Avocado. Interesting! #blinddrams
