Johnnie Walker Double Black, 40% abv

Fruit medley with undertones of smoke on the nose - almost jammy. Beach bonfire dessert. Lovely intro to the world of peated whiskies. Good V4$.

Chivas Regal 12 Years Old, 40% abv

Soft fruity moving to herbal with light vanilla and nutty notes on the nose. Baked fruit compote; softness at first moving to a wee edge on the finish

New Zealand Doublewood 10 Years Old, 40% abv

Astringent, edgy with an unpleasant sharp finish. Some redeeming features of vanilla, fennel and Belgian endive (or quinine)? But, all told, a desperation dram.

New Zealand Doublewood 10 Years Old, 40% abv

Sweet raisins in a bourbon custard on the nose. Light sweet creamy vanilla on the palate. Lacking in balance to my taste with a hint of soap on the finish.
