Below is my rating system for the reviews:

Berthed ⚓ — give it a try. Not quite there for me though.

Surfaced 🌊 — a solid whisky, worth exploring. Simple. Easy. But limited depth.

Dived 🤿 — something I’d happily come back to. Now we’re seeing depth and flavour.

Patrol Worthy 🏴‍☠️ — a whisky I’d keep on hand. Serious whisky. Structured. Deliberate and Deep.

Warrant Standard 🎖️ — exceptional, and something truly worth seeking out. Receives the full Whisky Warrant Accolades.
