Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Light again. Next door to the previous one's sweet shop is a nail parlour.\rAcetone central.

Palate: Caramel toffee then coconut then lime chocolates. Spicy and a little hard.

Finish: Again this slightly artificial perfume.

Comment: Handy if you need to clean your nails I suppose.

Score: 6

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Fruity. Pear drop. Apple jelly. Touch of barley sugar. Quite sweet. Another 'young'

Palate: Frisky. Oily. Pear nectar again. A gentle touch of vanilla.

Finish: Fruity, spicy. Rather short.

Comment: Again a whisky which has not had time to mature or has not benefited from a very good cask. But the fruity notes make it pleasant though.

Score: 7.2
