Official Tasting Notes

Nose: This is evidently a Campbeltown dram. The waxy, lightly smoky nose with hints of leather gives away the origin of this dram. Rich and creamy with hints of American cream soda, apricots, dark fruit and linseed.

Palate: Just like previous WIPs the tangy orange and citrus marmalade notes remain. A little bit sweeter than previous WIP releases, with clear presence of apricot jam. There is a great weight of Campbeltown sea air present, Very smooth and fruity.

Finish: Fresh, sweet yet dry finish.
