Teachers Highland Cream

Nose, Taste, Finish and Balance are graded out of 2.5 each:

Nose: Butterscotch and lemon drizzle cake, bathing gently in a pool of creamy butter, all co-existing in a rich harmony as the grains and malt weave together quite seamlessly. 2.0

Taste: The weave is at once unwoven on the palate, as a medium-bodied oil drives the grains forward, carrying with them subtle vanillas and muted spices. Allowed to sit for long enough, the oil slowly churns itself into a creamy butterscotch, as the malt finally catches up with the pacier grains. 2.0

Finish: A short burst of malt and spice seems to burn off the cream and leave behind a wooden residue, coated in a fruity fudge. 1.5

Balance: To use the obvious analogy on offer on the label, on the nose this Teacher appears to have a very disciplined and uniform classroom, however upon closer inspection, we can see on the palate that each individual is allowed to express themselves quite freely, sometimes perhaps to the detriment of classroom order, as is apparent on the finish. Analogies aside however, this is a truly smooth and creamy blend, and one that offers fantastic value for money with no shortage of intricate flavour. 2.0
