Taster   Dave Broom
Nose: Slightly raw note: crisp and sappily green, lead pencils. There's also a tarry note that reminds me of Pontefract cakes.
Palate: Sweet and malty with raspberry, but overall pretty hard and young. The spirit seems concentrated, still sleeping.
Finish: Sweet.
Comment: Concentrated and tense, a little immature.
