''The Clan Johnstone, once one of the most powerful of the Border Reiver Scottish Clans, for over 600 years cast their watchful eyes over the Borders of Scotland from Lochwood Tower. This beautiful Lowland dram is dedicated to them and to my own family''. -Stephen James Johnstone
A light yet very complex whisky, it exemplifies the whisky style typical of the Scottish lowlands, gentle and full of character.
Nose: A malty and crisp nose opens with fresh green apples leading on to a sweet vanilla note akin to buttercream icing. Lighter floral notes appear alongside a deeper peppery oak adding some intriguing depth.
Palate:Â The first sip brings floods of fresh peaches and banana milkshake together with honey and just a hint of pleasing fiery ginger. A deeper toffee flavour begins to envelope the mouth and plays well with a more savoury hay characteristic to round out the sip.
Finish: A lingering sweet finish that leaves the essence of rhubarb and custard sweets on the tongue.
A belter of a dram. A lovely, delicate palate with notes of tropical fruits, vanilla and light oak. Perfect for a warm summers day.
