Tasting notes

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Earthy, damp bracken, pine wood, grass. Firm cereal notes. Warm, woollen hiking socks. Ovaltine. Slightly milky. Young, beginning to come together.
Palate: Nutty, crunchy, hazelnut. Grass. Unctuous feel. Sweet in the centre.
Finish: Crisp. Dry grass.
Comment: Seems bulkier than I recall.

7.5

Taster Martine Nouet

Nose: Sweet. Restrained. Pine nut. Rice pudding and custard. Caramel. With a dash of water, stewed apples.
Palate: Sweet, a bit soft and watery in the middle. Toffee and honey.
Finish: Short, dry. Nutty.
Comment: Not as enticing as the older versions. Lacks depth but it has nothing to do with youth. Water kills it down.
