Much to my surprise I found a whisky review sample from Wemyss in my mailbox a short while ago. It’s been a while, but why not? So here are my findings:
Wemyss Nectar Grove Batch Strength
Blended Malt, Maderia Finish – 54.0%
My Tasting Notes:
Colour: Medium amber
Nose: Fresh apples, pears, banana, polished wood, hints of nutmeg and pepper
Palate: Passion fruit, honey, pineapple, poached pears, vanilla, black pepper, hints of chili
Finish: Long and fruity
Overall: A well done madeira finish that adds a bunch of fruity flavours to the whisky without becoming dominiant. This likely is not very old whisky but it does provide a pleasant sipping experience that doesn’t break the bank.
Rating: 86/100 – Price tag: £40
