After hearing from the Ardgowan master whisky blender Max McFarlane, we were treated to a dram of the new whisky.

It's sweet, a bit like honey on top of cereal with a dash of sultana, and has a long lingering taste. With a few drops of water, the Coppersmith opened up in flavour and drinkability for me. This is a whisky to savour and relax with.

We also got to taste Coppersmith in a couple of cocktails including a high ball and an old fashioned. The high ball being a favourite of the night.
