Member Ratings and Notes

Adam

Sweet and easy, simple but yummy. Too much heat in the finish.

Dave

My favorite in this series. The sweetness is sugary, not winey like the others. I really like what they did with this. I do recommend this.

Sku

Nose: sweet honey and liqueur notes with a malty background.
Palate: Very sweet and syrupy with a good malty back note that develop into a malty finish.

Nice and drinkable, if a bit too sweet for my tastes.

Fuji

I thought it had lots of very sweet white wine notes on the nose. Peaches and nectarines with tea on the palate and a light honey sweet finish. Nothing offensive about this malt but I struggled to finish the bottle.

Ries

n: golden plump raisins, doughy cinnamon rolls with thick white frosting. Sundried linens in summer. Vanilla and orange candle wax.

t: the vanilla and orange frosting sweetness is the main flavour. A lot of golden grape juice and ripe peaches, the cask finish has a lot of influence here. This is quite sweet and doesn't have a ton of complexity but it is quite tasty and nice for what it does. This is dense and sweet with just enough oak to round it out and deliver a little complexity. My second favourite in the series. [B/B+]

Andy

n: Faint. Honeysuckle and tin

p: Generic sweetness over new wood. Hotter than expected. Easy drinking though.
