Marci Raines 4.8 July 2020

The word about the barley strain is that it's an Ardbeg cask. Nose: Green strawberries, Lanky Larrys, fresh nuts. Taste: Earthy peat, fatty smoke, toasted barley on toast, honey. Finish: Clean, chocolate, lasting.

How the score is built

4.75 is the plain average of 1 review.

The 3.79 score we rank by pulls that average toward its category until enough people have weighed in, so a handful of glowing reviews cannot outrank a thousand steady ones.
