Taster

Nose: Soft summer fruits; raspberry and cranberry. Initially,a little like an old style, slightly oxidised Provence rose\rthough this quickly flies off,leaving grass and the picture of a rhubarb tart.

Palate: Surprisingly dry start given the juicy fruits. Malty and quite grippy then quaking fruit jelly. Fat and sweet.

Finish: Wine gums.

Comment: More of a fruit squash than a whisky, but use it as a delicious,ready-mixed summer drink.

Score: 6.9

Taster

Nose: Immediate wine finish influence which the bright orange colour confirms. Floral and fruity. Green oak.\rMilk chocolate. Seems young.

Palate: Sweet and smooth but with a grippy feel in the back.Cadbury raisin fruit bar.

Finish: Shortwith a bitter edge

Comment: A young whisky revamped by a wine finish. Balance is not here. Water brings out spices. But the malty profile is overwhelmed. I am not convinced.

Score: 7
