We park in front of Wolfburn a few minutes after 14:00. Regardless, we manage to convince the guide to let us join the group that started the visit ten minutes ago.

It is a nice tour, basic, but informative. At the end, we get to try four expressions:
 |
Wolfburn Aurora (46%, OB, 1st Fill Bourbon, Oloroso Sherry Hogsheads, b. ca 2022) |
 |
Wolfburn Northland (46%, OB, American Oak Quarter Casks, b. ca 2022)
|
 |
| Wolfburn Langskip (58%, OB, 1st Fill Bourbon Casks, b. ca 2022) |
 |
Wolfburn Morven (46%, OB, b. ca 2022)
|
Only Northland is to my liking, if heavily on the new-school, Bourbon-maturation tip. It is all lemon curd, custard and lemon-drizzle cake. Lovely. 7/10
The other three are young and rough, and do not really do it for me. 5/10
Mind you, I only nose in JS's glass: Wolfburn has a strict no-alcohol rule for drivers. Instead, I am allowed to choose one mini from the shop to take away. Yay. :-|
