Tasting notes

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Seems mature. Surprisingly little nose burn for such a high-strength bottling. Firm with ripe fruits,fragrantwood,a touch of violet,overripe banana,Assam tea.There's smoke at work here as well
Palate: Sweet start. Good oily feel with layers of concentrated flavour. Deep and mellow fruitfulness.
Finish: Long,deep.
Comment: Fuller than you normally get from Rosebank,but no worse for that. Highly recommended.

8.5

Taster Rob Allanson

Nose: A whiff of smoke under apples, pears and a hint of shortcrust pastry. Develops a little coffee aftera while .
Palate: Very firm alcohol hit but not the burning variety. Good mouthfeel. Water opens up more fruits andthe smoke still lingers.
Finish: Very long and pleasing.
Comment: Highly enjoyable with great layers of complexity.
