Jim Murray

Taster

Nose: Usually fruity and a little minty, floral character, citrus lingers with the vanilla, rye and sandalwood.

Palate: The flavours unravel in slow motion: soft rye then a slight malty character and then fuller corn.

Finish: Cocoa enriches the final moments that have been sweetened by a light molasses.

Comment: Perhaps the lightest Elmer T Lee of the dozens I have savoured.

Score: 9
