Tasting notes

Taster Rob Allanson

Nose: Warming slate, Parkin cake and dark chocolate. Masses of red berrycompote followed by peach and ripe apricots.
Palate: Cherries, espresso coffee, Harrogate toffee and paprika. Fruits come through, apricots and peaches.
Finish: The wood starts to grip with clove and a little menthol. Again the coffee note.Comments
Comment: Has raised the benchmark in how to finish a whisky in wine casks.

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: To start there's some bracken before it sweetens into hard toffee and thenwaves of fruits. All very exotic and fragrant with notes of sweet vanilla and chocolate.
Palate: Sweet, there's a good elegant maturity and lots of spice.
Finish: Rosehip syrup.
Comment: Unlike other double matured samples here this shows integration and is distillate rather than wood driven.
