Tasting notes

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Rich with cedar and a sweet perfumed lift. Dusty with some dried flower. Has real poise and elegance considering the strength. Water layers the aromas well bringing out some char as well as scented Chinese tea.
Palate: Sweet and concentrated with strawberry and cherry. Sweet juicy fruits then toffee, sandalwood and even incense. Big and thick on the palate. Balanced.
Finish: Spicy great length.
Comment: Copes with high alcohol well. Great balance, poise and sophistication.

8.5

Taster Dominic Roskrow

Nose: Glazed cherries, cedarwood, dusty polished leather.
Palate: Dark chocolate dipped cherries, spearmint and spice.
Finish: Long and warming.
Comment: A fine and full bourbon all-rounder.
