Hands down the best Wemyss i have ever had, this is a very nice whisky that is complex enough and well crafted for more experienced palates. Bottled at 46%abv. On the nose, a very complex and well crafted dram. Tropical fruits. White wine. Peat, cut grass. Chocolate fudge, pineapple and coconut. Nice. On the palate, it has a lot of character. Peaty / earthy. Smoke. Dry grass, dry sweetness. Mostly a mild peat. Aftertaste, is ashy with a short cigarrette note. Very similar to ardmore. Overall this is a nice dram. The price tag gives it another point. 87 over 100.

Delightfully smokey and smooth. Oily with Warm lingering peat smoke, a pleasing spice hangs on the tongue but doesn’t overwhelm. Iodine and medicinal notes are apparent. If you like islay scotches, this is a nice value buy under $40. Limited edition...stock up
The smoky taste stays on your palate long and has a slight burn - The best blended scotch I have found if you like your scotch Peat & Smoky!
chutná divně. jako levné blended. žádný kouř, žádná svěžest. temná, ale nudná. kvalitní, ale moje chuť to není.
Needs work, lots and lots of gasoline. Peat and smoke don’t help.
