Tasting notes

Taster Martine Nouet

Nose: Odd at first. Fresh paint, white glue. Then nicer notes. Almond milk. A hint of lemon posset. But the nose is shy and does not open much.
Palate: Very smooth. But in the same faint tonality as the nose. A slight cardboardy taste. A hint of spices and lemon juice. Then nothing.
Finish: Hardly noticeable.
Comment: Wash-paint which would have faded after a too long exposure to the light.

6.5

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Raw and either very young or immature. Unripe wheaty notes reminiscent of birdseed. Then a touch of petrol.
Palate: Thin and mean.
Finish: Thin.
Comment: Recession whisky?
