Tasting Notes

Nose

Clementine, nutmeg, spruce — cinnamon warmth, freshly grated black pepper, the 57.1% announcing its strength with aromatic intensity

Palate

Ginger and citrus leading — sweet and fresh character with strong juniper hit, cumin adding an unusual savoury warmth, grains of paradise providing gentle heat, the navy strength carrying every spice with authority

Finish

Ginger, cinnamon, rich fruit — milled pepper and orange rind mixing with the spice, long and warming, the Admiral's legacy in every sip

Expert Review

8/10

Inspired by Admiral Sir Rosslyn Wemyss — the family ancestor who rose to Admiral of the Fleet. The same botanicals as Darnley's Spiced but with extra juniper and increased to 57.1%, creating a bold navy strength with intense warming spice. Distilled at Kingsbarns in the East Neuk of Fife.
