Taster Rob Allanson

Finish: Long and full of vanilla and raisins.
Comment: Well balanced and easy to drink.

8.4

Taster Martine Nouet

Nose: Restrained. Sweet vanilla syrup. A light floral touch. Caramelising crèmebrûlée. Aromas are released in tinges.
Palate: Very smooth and silky. Elegant, fruity. Peaches and nectarines. Drying on soft spices. Charming.
Finish: In the same tone. Almonds in the back.
Comment: What a surprising whisky. The nose is so shy that you expect a bland palate. And here you are, with a lovely array of fruity flavours. You definitely can't tell a sausage by the skin (one of my favourite expressions learnt at school !)
