Bottle shared in London - cheers! Pours mostly clear gold with a frothy, white head. Moderately sweet with notes of white grape, tangy lemon, wheat bread. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet and bready finish, more white grapes. Fine.

16/6/2020. Sample courtesy of the SHIG, cheers! Pours bubbly clear dark gold with minimal head. Aroma is weak whiskey, light wood, hint of coconut, a little dusty and funky, with some sour fruits. Medium plus sweetness and light tartness. Light to moderate body, surprisingly watery. Grew on me a bit but not a huge fan, the weak watered down whiskey didn’t do it for me.

Bottle: Poured a carbonated orange with white ring around the glass after the white head fizzed away. Aroma was super boozy, whisky and sherry, wood, citrus, lemon, funky. Taste is very weird, almost wine like, fruits, loads of booze, whisky

Bottle split at L6 tasting, cheers, 09/10/19. Very lightly hazed golden yellow with a decent off white covering. Nose is apple skins, dusty straw, grains, light funk, yeast esters. Taste comprises base funk, damp wood, lemon rind, toasted grains, light spice, mellow barrel, vinous trace, light yeast tickle. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Decent although little in the way of barrelling coming over for me.

330ml bottle. Pours a misty deep gold, thin bubbles atop. Aroma has a light sweetness attributable to the whisky. Gentle on the palate, soft rye & whisky notes to taste with fleeting sherry. A higher carbonation would be beneficial but otherwise not bad at all.
