Review and Tasting

Sampled on 03/09/2016

Appearance:

Crystal clear.

Aroma:

Bready with spirituous white pepper and delicate orchard fruit with faint saltiness. Pear skin emerges with water.

Taste:

Pear emerges with sweet white bread. Water amplifies fruit with faint white petal floral influence.

Aftertaste:

Brown bready finish.

Overall:

Perhaps not a malt you’d buy to drink neat but Kingsbarns New Make Spirit offers an exciting early glimpse of what the future whiskies produced by this new Lowland distillery might be like, and it is an interesting base for cocktails.
