Суммаризация отзывов
Отзывы в целом описывают яркий фруктовый и цветочный профиль с ванилью, солодовостью и травянистыми нотами, при этом неоднократно отмечается горьковатая или древесная составляющая и вопросы к цене. Мнения о глубине и цельности расходятся: часть отзывов хвалит баланс и текстуру, часть считает виски простоватым или с неприятными нотами.
развернуть подробно
В носовой части отзывы чаще всего фиксируют фруктовость (яблоко, груша, цитрусовые, личи, ананас, персик), цветочные и травянистые оттенки, ваниль, сено, солодовость и иногда сливочные или пекарские ноты. Вкус описывают как маслянистый и сливочный, с фруктами, ванилью, мёдом, специями и перечной остротой; при этом неоднократно упоминается горьковатый или кисловатый оттенок, а в отдельных отзывах — бумажные, меловые или химические ноты и плохо интегрированный алкоголь. Финиш в большинстве случаев средний или длинный, с цитрусовой цедрой, специями, дубом, травянистостью и горьковато-древесными тонами.
Общий тон отзывов смешанный: виски хвалят за выразительный фруктово-цветочный характер, сливочную текстуру и «летний» стиль, иногда называя его одним из лучших представителей стиля или очень удачным для 46%. Однако часть отзывов считает его простоватым, недостаточно глубоким, с доминирующей горечью или неприятными нотами, и почти повсеместно поднимается вопрос завышенной цены; несколько отзывов отмечают, что более высокая крепость могла бы пойти на пользу.

There is always a touch of bitterness in the background, not the most interesting Daftmill indeed

Daftmill is so spotty for me, some bottlings are simply great some as this one are disappointment... For me doesn't worth price, even close...

| Нос | 89 | Great vanilla notes, hay, maltiness, even light coal smoke, sweetened milk, light floral notes After enough time in the glass some light funkiness pops up, same as the most interesting notes of Hubba Bubba gums mixed with mango and pineapple |
| Вкус | 80 | Some sweetness, chalky, some papery of notes, light bitterness, light bitter lemon, some funky floral notes, some almonds, alcohol is not well integrated If there is no that papery-chalky-bitter-chemical... off note this could be pretty good |
| Финиш | 81 | Medium in length Oak, nice citrus peel, some bitter off notes, wet paper, nail polish removal, bitter almonds Feels like I sprayed deodorant in my mouth... It simply feels wrong |
Totally delicious and pretty singular, Daftmill already has a style of its own.

A very pleasant introduction of Daftmill to my tastebuds. I'm impressed with the abudant fruitiness paired with a floral and grassy Lowland character. Only the taste is a bit more narrow, cask strength would have been nice, especially at this price point.

| Нос | 88 | Expressive fruitiness on the front with apples, peaches, citrus fruits, gooseberries, green plums and pineapple. Floral notes follow, together with lemon grass, vanilla, some hay and cake. A seductive nose! |
| Вкус | 86 | Continues on the fruity theme, though it is more narrow now: I get melons, lychees and grapefruits. On the background liquorice and grassy notes can be found, while vanilla and gummi bears add sweetness. A certain bitterness develops, reminding me of triple sec. |
| Финиш | 88 | A long finish, with grapefruits, oranges and floral aromas teaming up with honey, vanilla, whipped cream and a touch of ground coffee. |
Nose Floral - meadow - apples Palate Oily - Plums - Fruity Finish Oak - Brine - medium Not bad, but price is a bit high for me. Not a stand-out drink but is pleasant non-the-less. Certainly a summer dram. Higher ABV would be interesting.

In a direct comparison, I like it slightly better than the 2008/2020 SB. Nothing unpleasant here either, but a little more intense.

| Нос | 88 | Sweet light fruit. Maybe lychee, quince, yellow plum. Quite stimulating. |
| Вкус | 84 | Still pleasant fruit, but with a sour or bitter influence. |
| Финиш | 81 | Is the wood coming through now? It's getting more bitter. |

Beautiful fruity nose, bitter-sweet on the palate, it doesn't really suit my taste here, the finish is long with strong, intense oak. Find it relatively unspectacular, but it was still interesting to have tried this whisky once - 07/22/2022

Stink bug, star fruit, lilac blossom, butter - doesn't even come close to the 2006s but is one of the best Daftmills in a long time.

Tasting: May 2022
Pretty good. I think this one shows the Daftmill distillate off quite clearly.

| Нос | 86 | Vanilla, hay, lemons, bananas, marzipan, wet dough, subtle pineapple. Very much Daftmill, but I agree that this one feels a little plain. |
| Вкус | 87 | Citrusy and oily, with vanilla, pineapples, apples, lemons, some melons and dough. Quite creamy. |
| Финиш | 86 | Some spice appears alongside the rest of the profile from the palate. Pretty zesty too. Warm and fresh. Quite leafy. |

Bright, fruity and floral nose, all wrapped up in sweet vanilla. It’s a very well-balanced lowland profile, with grassy notes alongside citrus fruits and a hint of pear juice. A light oaky note comes through more with a drop of water. Wonderful! Very similar profile on the palate, but with something slightly more industrial appearing amongst the fruit and vanilla. Medium-length, buttery and spicy finish, drifting towards bitterness but pulling back from it at the last minute.
Surprisingly full whisky, for its 46% Abv, especially im the nose. A lot of citrus, malty, creamy. Pleasant for sure.

| Нос | 86 | Powerful scent, quite some alcohol noticeable. Fresh and fruity, citrus, lime and lemon, malty, grassy. |
| Вкус | 86 | Initially very smooth now, fruity, citrus, lwmon, lime. A little sour edge. Creamy character, creamy vamilla and caramel now. |
| Финиш | 85 | More powerful now, warming. Malty, fruity, citrus, pretty long finish. Creamy. |
In the smell just reminds me of overripe bananas and haribo candy bananas. Very funny. Also more fruit and creamy in the taste. Who needs sherry casks with such good whisky?

Blind Aroma Very fruity, round, light fruit, pear, citrus, young, mint taste Sweetish, pepper, wood spice, young finish Medium length, wood spice, pepper, herbs
Instantly the trademark Daftmill tropical fruit notes on the notes. With vanilla. More baking spices on the palate. Perfect for a summer’s day. Fairly consistent 10-12 year old small batch releases for them. 88/100 today but I’m sure on a good day it reaches to 90.
First impression: The nose again offers a perfect floral Daftmill profile. A bit drier in the mouth than expected, but always absolutely great.

Just another normal daftmill. Nothing interests me.

| Финиш | 82 | The heathers blur after a short time - and that's it. |
Great texture. Banana bomb. Apples. Perfume. Coconut. This is definitely the lowland king. Take the price aside... This is one of the best 46% 10-12 yo whisky. Great job.

nice ex-BC whisky, brings everything for the summer. Vanilla, exotic fruits and for me a slight sweetness in the direction of pineapple (without the acid of course). Long finish, I lack the depth for a higher rating, a nice bottling for the age - ambitious in terms of price.

| Нос | 87 | Vanilla, ripe pear, Asian plum, liquorice notes combine with lychee and apple. For a short time I had tropical fruits, like passion fruit in the nose. |
| Вкус | 87 | Again vanilla and ripe pear, some peppery spiciness, slightly bitter notes and wood. Supplemented by pastry dough notes and in the background lychee and again some Asian plums with tropical fruits. |
| Финиш | 86 | medium length Notes of pear, wood, vanilla and subtle hazelnut and ginger remain, albeit not for long. |

| Нос | 87 | Pear Juice, Custard, Pineapple, Cowshed, Straw, Ginger, Lychee, Herbs. A comparatively complex nose that also has something peculiar about it. |
| Вкус | 84 | Fruity, bitter and sour at the same time. Actually quite interesting, but the bitterness is too dominant for me - the whole thing is more reminiscent of a compost heap. |
| Финиш | 85 | The finish lets the fruit dry out slightly and leaves sour, bitter and woody notes on the tongue. |
