Speyburn 10yo 40%


Two posts in a day! I must lie down!!! Speyburn is a stunning distillery nestled in the valley just out side the not so pretty combination plant in the village of Rothes, so how does the whisky stand up!


Nose: Hard boiled sweets - old fashioned ones! Green apples. Touches of lemon and flour?


Taste: Fairly thin, dried apricots and a little hot.


Finish: A touch of spice, not really much else.


Comment: Sorry but pretty average. I have tried some older Speyburns that I like but nothing about this really appeals to me!


Score: 75/100
