Tasting notes

Taster Martine Nouet

Nose: Light, creamy. Young oak. A touch of chicken broth. Some sweeter notes.
Palate: Round and sweet. Caramel custard. Not much more. A hint of ginger.
Finish: Short, minty. A bitter touch.
Comment: Correct but not a very palatable profile.

7.3

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Sweet and ripe reminiscent of a glucose drink. Added fresh spiciness.
Palate: More of a palate whisky with juicy depth and fragrant hints of cumin and coriander. It does, sadly seem to lack a little backbone.
Finish: Sweet spiciness.
Comment: Another which collapses with water.
