Tasting Notes

Ian Wisniewski

Taster

Nose: Apricots, baked apples, mellow spice and underlying oak, brioche and gingerbread.

Palate: Elegant though with a certain richness, balancing cooked fruit and apricots with subtle spices, créme brûlée sweetness balanced by oak.

Finish: The same flavours but the volume rises, and lasts.

Comment: An animated and flirtatious nature, with engaging gestures and a lovely smile.

Score: 7.5

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Crème caramel. Rosewater.

Palate: Am I being suggestible? That famous Campbeltown coconut character seems almost tangible. Dry and straw-like at first, then a surge of grassy sweetness. Dusting of powdered sugar. Garnish candied angelica.

Finish: Cookie-like dryness.

Comment: Seems simple at first, but gradually reveals subtleties. Stylish, teasing.

Score: 8
