Edradour 10 Year Old - Rapid Review
On a recent trip to Edinburgh I came across this divine whiskey, marketed as ‘Scotland’s Little Gem’.
Famed as being distilled in Scotland’s smallest distillery since 1825. Aged in a combination of Oloroso Sherry and Bourbon casks.
This single malt has quite a kick to it. This is not a smooth whisky.
I found it has a bit of a sharp though sugary aftertaste that is instantly warming. Bit of a singe on the nostrils.
There is a smidgen of caramel here and it’s refreshingly sharp, whilst also sweet. It’s like a sharp intake of breath on a crisp and frosty November morning.
There’s also hints of liquorice and coffee in there for those patient enough to sniff it out.
