Day 12, 2025 Whisky Adventure Calendar calendar. Quite smooth for such a strong cask strength malt. I can see my notes from 2022, and nothing is different this time around. Really nicely balanced, great complexity, delicious. — 2 days ago

Day 6 of the 2025 Whisky Advent Calendar. This time around smells a bit like cedar wood to me. Tangy. Still don’t love it. But like it more than last time. — 7 days ago

Day 3 of the 2025 Whisky Advent Calendar. Seems to be running in same order as 2022. Almost colourless, light bodied, someone but mostly a smoke bomb. Don’t love it. — 10 days ago

Week 4 2025 Whisky Advent calendar. It’s all smoke, too bright, too sharp for me. Which is odd when I read how I rated it 3 years ago. Follow-up, with a bit of water the toast and vanilla notes came out more. — 8 days ago

Day 5 of the 2025 Whisky Advent calendar, clearly following the 2022 selection. Really like this. Dense, rich, toasty vanilla and caramel notes. Spicy too, and maybe a hint of fruit from the wine barrels? But straightforward in those flavors. — 7 days ago
