WHISKY TASTING NOTES
Category: Curious
Nose: The nose carried an exuberant burst of sweet beach bonfire smoke that wafted around rockpools and lobster pots. Then fruity aromas teased the senses with barbecued pineapple, salted lemon and charred apple. A buoyant maritime influence continued as smoked crab and oily fish embraced the iodine of fresh seaweed.
Palate: The palate too was a vivacious combination of salt and sweetness. Juicy pineapple became wrapped in salted caramel, before the raciness of gooseberry tart merged with citrus juice squeezed over smoked fish.

About our Bottles
For us, one of the best aspects of a good single malt whisky is its ability to bring people together. So when we created our bottles we wanted to design something that felt like a decanter - meant to be passed around a group of friends, new and old, as they enjoy sharing a dram together.
Our bottles have a good weight to them, making them feel substantial and giving them the presence a good whisky deserves. We've offset the label, so that the whisky is centre stage; it shows the natural colour of the liquid clearly and proudly.
The label clearly and transparently shows you all the key information, including: the nature of the liquid (for example, single malt scotch) where it was distilled; how old it is; and how strong it is. All our liquids are natural colour and non chill filtered.
Our bottles come in two sizes: 700ml, which is our standard for our main releases; and for some of our expressions, 100ml minis.
