Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Flat and soft. Acetone once again, biscuit, hot crumpet, oily and slightly smoky with water.

Palate: A somewhat unhappy amalgam of the oak and a young spirit. The former is beginning to soften and bring out some sweetness but is also quite grippy. All rather uneasy.

Finish: Hard.

Comment: Another let-down. Lacking in coherence.

Score: 6.5

Ian Buxton

Taster

Nose: Biscuits. Wood smoke. Complex.

Palate: Smooth and rounded.

Finish: Long and consistent.

Comment: Probably the best of the bunch.

Score: 7.5
