“Finished in ruby port casks after an initial maturation in bourbon and European oak sherry casks, this indulgent, satisfying dram is the standout in this collection. Assuredly peaty on the nose, with cranberry, strawberry bubble gum, black currant mousse, and fine spices. It’s soothing and smooth in the mouth, showing milk chocolate, fudge cake, brown sugar, and salty smoke, then a finish of chocolate lava cake and peat smoke.” – Jonny McCormick, Whisky Advocate (94 Points)
“There’s depth, there’s complexity, and fair representation from the Islay; I might have liked a tad more peat, but I’m not really complaining. At around AUD $170, it’s a whisky that sits above par, got good flex, has rizz and well worth for round two!” – Donnie, My Whisky Diaries
