5This whisky made more sense over one large cube. I liked the warm oak; the soft fruit made it feel complete rather than heavy. I'd happily choose it again.

3We tried this whisky during a weekend catch-up. It had a decent dry, tidy finish; after that, the sweetness felt flat. Fine for a casual serve, less convincing on its own.

4Akashi was part of a small get-together. I liked the nutty edge. The only drawback was that the alcohol stood out too much. A solid four rather than a five.
