Very rich and full of nutty and creamy vanilla toffee, that core tropicality is there as well as a distinct coastal influence. 86/100 Continue reading

Ledaig 10 Years Old 2008 The Single Cask
Ledaig 10 Years Old 2008 The Single Cask Whisky Review: Another superb expression, the complete antithesis of colour = flavour, much like many young Islay whiskies. A lovely mixture of fruit and smoke with more than an indication on the… Continue reading

Adrien Camut 6 Ans d’Age Calvados Pays d’Auge
Adrien Camut 6 Ans d’Age Calvados Pays d’Auge Calvados Review: Another deep and rich expression, plenty of oak wood but with an effervescent/mentholic nature, probably tannic/cask derived? balanced by plenty of rich fruits. 86/100 Continue reading
