April Top-ups: Twenty Somethings

Mouth-watering TWENTY Somethings waiting for YOU now…

1.168 Delightfully dulcet deliciosity
28YO Speyside Spey, £86.60
The palate was a delightfully dulcet deliciosity with wow-ously warming woody spices – we tasted dried cranberries, peach stone, roast pumpkin, irn-bru, carrot cake and teasingly tannic after-tingles of walnut, leather and wood. More

4.171 Perfumed and Sultry
21YO, Highland Island, £80.10
I’ve been transported to an Irish lochside’ one panellist exclaimed! Pebbles, rocks covered in dry seaweed, a fresh rural breeze and hay bails presented themselves on the nose, alongside black pepper, damp young wood and custard creams. More

26.92 Hard glazed pretzel sticks
28YO, Highland Northern, £91.90
This engaging sample from the distillery situated in Brora, tastes sweet like a bacon breakfast cake with maple syrup but at the same time salty like a Salzstange. More

31.26 BBQ smoke by a rolling sea
24YO, Highland Island, £70.70
Our noses picked up the sea in droplets of spray, mixed seafood barbecues and beach clean-up bonfires. We also found mineral notes (slate, plaster, Plasticine) butterscotch,  aniseed, salted crisps and cooked buttery pastry. More

29.121 Seafood party on the beach
20YO, Islay
The initial nose gave coal sacks, beach barbecue wood smoke, ash, Germolene, raisins, toffee and toasted nuts – before turning Oriental (curry plant leaves, lemongrass, coconut, cinnamon).  More
