Wolfburn Langskip Whisky 700ml

Nose: There's some discernible lemon puff in there and a sweetness, even a hint of ozone freshness, while behind there's some charred rootiness. That said, as it's slightly hard to get into it, it makes sense to add water rather than struggle. It opens the citric elements up, along with nemesia, some creaminess, fresh-cut grass and the sweetness of cow's breath. The florals continue to lift, moving into wild rose and cherry blossom. Palate: Gorgeous, sweet and fragrant start, although the heat kicks in quickly obscuring what seems like a (hot) sugar-coated doughnut. Once again water helps allowing the sweetness to come through now, with some nuttiness making things generally softer and more approachable with just sufficient of the lemony acidity to add some bite. Finish: Hot when neat, then pineapple and lemon. Conclusion: It's another winner from Wolfburn. Read more
