Description
Tasting note
Whenever I drink this whisky, I hugely enjoy the interplay between sweet, fruity spirit and dry spice provided by the casks. Treacle toffee notes are glimpsed between sultanas, apricot and fresh English orchard fruits. The texture is soft, and the hints of baking spice make the finish delightfully moreish. This is an excellent opening whisky for the evening. Alternatively, a wonderful lunchtime highball can be made with this.

Critics reviews
Similar to Cotswolds Reserve, this standard strength bottling is aged in first-fill bourbon casks, and STR red wine casks and their influence is apparent on the nose: toffee, vanilla cream, banoffee pie, sliced red apple, apricot, dry spices, and dried fruits. Lighter textured than Cotswolds Reserve, there’s a satisfying balance of mandarin, red apple, pepper, vanilla, and cherry, with the red apple notes coming out on top.
