Tasting Notes from Dram Mor:

Nose: It is pretty mild on the nose. There is a hint of charred oak but not the powerful oak you would expect from this Orcadian spirit that has rested in Islay oak.

Palate: And there’s the smoke! Its a gentle but unavoidable peat smoke but there is so much more than that in this dram. Sweet, juicy stone fruits of peach and nectarine fill the mouth. A rollercoaster of flavours which combine all the fruitiness of the pallet with that incredible cask. Quite simply sumptuous.

Finish: Floral, lots and lots of blossoms, delicate fruit, a very little smoke and something not unlike frankincense, fleeting but delicious with just a delicate birch sap at the end.
