Dram 1:
Palate: Drinks at far less than abv indication, sweet, buttery popcorn, again that little bit of bitterness. Mouth hold brings some heat, some spiciness.
Finish: Buttery pastry, like croissants. Quite short, but would probably layer up well.

I started this wanting to share whisky with Dad, it grew to sharing with friends and their families, then a whole community...our Club was born.
It's amazing to see how our community live this core idea that is at the centre of everything we do, sharing whisky with others.
