Tasting notes
Taster   Dave Broom
Nose: Little flat after a big hit of alcohol. Citric and then some spiced apple juice. Good fresh, lively character and a lifted vegetative note. With water there’s toffee apple, tangerine, cereal husk and lily.
Palate: Immediate spice (cinnamon and aniseed). Intense and clean. Good energy.
Finish: Slightly bitter.
Comment: A fine Linlithgow.
7.8
Taster   Martine Nouet
Nose: Malty with a yeasty tang. A mix of herbs and honey, like a mead. A bit sugary. Orange squash.
Palate: Sweet even candy like .Crystallised violets. Gets minty. Nice fresh feel but all in a piece.
Finish: Soft, (too) sweet and rather bland.
Comment: A heavy style. Lacks elegance and complexity. Even a sweet tooth might be disappointed.
