Wine Enthusiast 92 points - Light and versatile, although at over 100 proof "natural cask strength,” this golden spirit could stand some dilution, whether via a dose of ice water or mixing into a cocktail.

Nadurra is the Gaelic word for natural. Revisiting 19th century practices, and unlike most modern whiskies, this single malt is not chill filtered, giving the mouth feel more body and a richer texture. A bold innovation in single malt.
Crisp and fresh, fruity and herbal. Superbly balanced.
After 16 years in first-fill American Oak casks, Nadurra is bottled at natural cask strength to deliver a rich and rewarding taste.
Nadurra 16 is bottled in batches to accommodate natural strength variances.
