Tasting notes

Taster Rob Allanson

Nose: A hint of bouquet garni, old style pharmacists: herbs, lotions, a waft of something metallic.
Palate: Has a really sweet hit at first then this dusty spicy note takes over. Dark fruits, black cherries and blackcurrants.
Finish: Swift and spiced.
Comment: Shows good integration and balance.

8.3

Taster Gavin D. Smith

Nose: Floral and herbal, sappy, with printer's ink, worn leather, spearmint.
Palate: Starts off sweet then begins to dry rapidly. Black ink and aniseed.
Finish: Quite short and dry.
Comment: A little unyielding on the palate.
