Danksy
3.5
A rare budget single malt sourced from Teaninich. Nose: Young and aggressive, but pleasantly malty with grass and tons of medicinal herbs breaking through. Taste: Bites quite hard, with a heavy malt delivery. Heather, clove, aniseed, green tea and citrus notes. It's an overwhelmingly medicinal herbal palate. Finish: Medium and hot. Malt, citrus, medicinal herbs linger. Final thoughts: This is definitely the most variously herbal Highland malt I have ever tasted. Unfortunately it's a bit harsh when neat. Adding some water and letting it breathe a bit is almost a must. It's also a rare chance to try a budget single malt whisky from a distillery that usually only supplies its malt for blends.
