DriftwoodCloud14 OctBright fruit, gently green.
copperkit4 OctI like the lemon and apple-pear fruit, though the greener, sharper side and sour-cream note make it feel less straightforward. Chocolate milk and green fruit round out the medium finish.
daybreak lantern18 SeptBright green fruit, with barley syrup and a bready turn.
cloudberry compass4 SeptThe stated 48.3% ABV is a useful point of context for a whisky whose character is already quite lively on the page. Lemon, elderberry and greener fruit give it a bright edge, while the bready notes and faint butterscotch offer some counterweight. The medium finish keeps that green-fruit thread going, with chocolate milk adding a softer turn. There’s plenty of detail here, though the acidic and grassy notes may make it less appealing to someone looking for a rounder, sweeter style.
