Tasting notes

Taster Martine Nouet

Nose: Fruity. Pear drop. Apple jelly. Touch of barley sugar. Quite sweet. Another 'young'
Palate: Frisky. Oily. Pear nectar again. A gentle touch of vanilla.
Finish: Fruity, spicy. Rather short.
Comment: Again a whisky which has not had time to mature or has not benefited from a very good cask. But the fruity notes make it pleasant though.

7.2

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Light again. Next door to the previous one's sweet shop is a nail parlour.Acetone central.
Palate: Caramel toffee then coconut then lime chocolates. Spicy and a little hard.
Finish: Again this slightly artificial perfume.
Comment: Handy if you need to clean your nails I suppose.
