Tasting notes
Taster   Arthur Motley
Nose: Orange: pith and rind. Lemon Jif and geraniums.
Palate: Dark chocolate, baked apples, hazelnuts and something sweet yet savoury like black bean sauce.
Finish: Dry roasted peanuts.
Comment: A full-on, after dinner style and a bold, characterful spirit.
8.0
Taster   Dave Broom
Nose: Fleshily ripe. Dried pear, clotted cream with scented estery notes. With water there's wholemeal bread, a touch of orange. Quite zippy.
Palate: A slightly strange mix of stewed fruit and dry malt tussling together. Hint of sulphur. Seems young suggesting greater things to come.
Finish: Long rich, lightly spiced slightly citric.
Comment: A teasing mix of aromas and flavours.
