94 Points, Tried & True – Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2023

“Aromas of sage, charred wood, and roasted spices captivate the senses, while a subtle ocean breeze minerality adds intrigue. The spicy, hot finish lingers with a well-balanced intensity. An enticing and harmonious tasting experience that showcases the perfect blend of flavors and complexity.”

98 Points – Intl Wine & Spirits Competition 2022

“Mossy peat, smoke, BBQ sweetcorn, honeyed oak and sweet fruit. Deeply flavorful, rich palate culminating in a fine oak-laced finish. Superb.”

Gold – Intl Spirits Challenge 2022

“Smoke, samphire, and Kilchoman’s fleshy core giving echoes of 80s cuisine: scallops and white peaches anyone? Watering shows sea-washed rock, light flowers, and hot sand. The palate is sweet, sour, and smoky, with a chalky edge and a peppery palate, but water releases blossom and a little gunsmoke.” – Whisky Advocate
