Time to try it
Penderyn Myth - Single Malt Welsh Whisky
Nose: Fresh, citrusy, with a hint of tropical fruit sweetness (maybe mango)
Taste: Very pleasantly sweet with a bit of lime peel zest towards the end. Very gentle on the palate
Finish: Medium, with more sweetness, vanilla and citrus
Pros and Cons
It's a super light-bodied, super easy-to-drink whisky. It's very delicate on the palate - a very smooth 40% ABV with no trace of peat.
I've tried this one neat and with a few drops of cold water and it's just as refreshing either way.

In Conclusion
Priced at around £35 on most UK websites, it's a great summery whisky for me, great for sipping. I think it would also be a great dram for any new whisky enthusiast.
