Dram 5: Palate delivers creamy smoke, is there such a thing! Very drying delivering heafty PPM on the taste buds with a side serve of rich fruit and treacle sweetness. Truly a dram worthy of Arthur Brown

Dram 5: weathered teak in colour what has good beading which very slowly develops in to a myriad of slow thin legs. The Crazy World of Arthur Brown is upon us, Fire! Peat smoke, Spinks Arbroath Smokies, barbecued honey marinated spare ribs

Dram 4: Palate has chocolate Medjool dates, spiced Christmas nuts, hot apple strudel all of which combines to deliver a lingering warm spiced finish which definitely suggests ā Cinnamon Girlā by Neil Young

Dram 3: Palate delivers a pepper spice that lingers but definitely still getting that āSugar and spiceā from the searchers. Mixed fruit with a touch of grated lemon zest brings up a Christmas mince pie finish

Dram 5. Palate delivers a sweet but drying smoke that long lingers on the palate. Barbecued fruit and vegetables deliver the sweetness without any meaty notes, lovely

Dram 5 is a very light gold in colour with maybe a slight pink blush. Appears quite viscous in the glass with legs slowly becoming apparent. Some acetone notes lead into green and fresh fruit with a hint of smoke

Dram 4 palate delivers in abundance. Fresh and sweet before a wave of subtle smoke covers the palate. The sweetness continues right until the last vestige of the dram and then a slight drying bitter note is left behind.
