Official bottling
Single malt - Lowlands
Colourless
46% ABV
Dram
Nose: Lemon juice, malted grains, wheat beer, sourdough bread, green apples, hints of vanilla.
Mouthfeel: Light body, loosens, cool, tingly.
Tasting: Sour. Malted grains, leather, diesel exhaust, green apples, grapefruit, hints of vanilla.
Finish: Short. Peat, leather, grapefruit, diesel exhaust, hints of vanilla.
Comments:
Odd lack of colour on this dram. It’s quite tart and fermented, lots of citrus and slightly ripe bread. On the tongue there’s peat and diesel exhaust. The flavours and harsh, perhaps a bit more aging will mellow this.
Verdict:
I like this.
Two little Lowlands because summer is not gone
