We hit the National Whisky Festival at the Corn Exchange, Edinburgh, for the first time - it turned out to be a pretty fun day, although are whisky reviews were quite a mixed bag!

Smells
Apricots, herbal. Prunes. Minty fresh. Newly varnished piece of furniture. Really caramelly. Quite a sharp smell. Very sweet. Mint and grapefruit. Flumps. Vanilla. Salty, sharp.
Tastes
Bananas, lots of fruit (cherry maybe?). Spice. Salted caramel popcorn. Oranges. Menthol. Treacly thickness too it. Quite fruity: nectarines and cherries, but in a caramalised way. Apricots as well, but mostly nectarines. Licorice. Marshmallow. Watered-down Grand Marnier. Starmix (Haribo, kids and grown ups love it so). Bit of herbs. Very caramelly, very sweet.
