Tasting notes

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Straw/nut, slightly earthy, wet grass. Hint of tangerine. Slightly fuzzy with alcohol.
Palate: Pretty firm and malty. Glucose, lemon, sweet fruits in centre, dry malt on the sides. A little acidic.
Finish: Light oak.
Comment: Decent balance, but very nervy.

7.8

Taster Michael Jackson

Nose: Warm. Fresh earthiness. The forest floor. Wild mushrooms. Chanterelle vol-au-vents.
Palate: Creamy. Slight accent toward maltiness, but very well balanced. Starts sweet, but develops some fruity acidity. Apricots. Apple. Fruit pie and custard.
Finish: Soothing warmth.
Comment: I hope we will be seeing a little more of Craigellachie.
