Tasting Notes

Nose

Resinous but fresh — a winter's forest walk in the Cairngorms, piney juniper taking centre stage with sweet fruity hints developing

Palate

Opens into grapefruit and peach — surprisingly sweet and fruity from just three ingredients, then dry with potpourri and aniseed backbone, Douglas fir adding morning-picked freshness

Finish

Dry with potpourri — the three Cairngorms ingredients creating remarkable complexity from radical simplicity, the forest walk lingering in memory

Expert Review

8/10

Just three ingredients — juniper, rosehips and Douglas fir, all harvested from the 200-acre Cairngorms estate. The Douglas fir picked on the morning of distillation. 500-bottle batches from Channel 4's Shed of the Year 2015. Resinous forest walk opening into grapefruit and peach.
