Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Bitter (pickled) plums and damp straw. Clearly aged with touches of rape seed oil. The weird opening flies off revealing walnut oil, damp ferns. Becomes increasingly interesting and complex.

Palate: Medium bodied with plenty of crisp wood, peppermint then clove. Lightly\rastringent (those plums again).

Finish: Nuttiness returns.

Comment: Has a certain louche charm to it.

Score: 7.8

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Warm, oaky. Milk chocolate, apples baked in oven, bread and butter pudding. Appetising and rich. With water, a creamy vanilla note.

Palate: Round and smooth. Oak is well integrated. Cloved orange. Darker\rchocolate than on the nose.

Finish: Smooth, quite lingering. Liquorice.

Comment: A well balanced whisky. A pleasant delivery of dessert-like flavours.

Score: 8
