Tasting Notes

Neil Ridley

Taster

Nose: Wonderful soft brown sugar/dark toffee notes on the first sniff with rum steeped cherries, toffee apple and vanilla essence.

Palate: Oily and very nicely mouth coating, with malty brown bread, some salted butter, a return of the dark toffee and stewed fruits.

Finish: Malty, with drying overtones.

Comment: Less complexity on the palate, but the nose can pop round for a visit anytime it likes.

Score: 8.1

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Like walking into an old church that has been closed for a while, musty books, polished pears, a lingering floral scent, velvet collection bags gathering dust. The oak is present, vanilla and golden caster sugar.

Palate: Sweet and oily with a big spicy edge too. Coconut milk and saffron, all \rspice and turmeric. Sherbet UFOs. Blackberry compote.

Finish: Sweet malt extract and drying in time.

Comment: Very intense stuff, one for pre dinner and a chat.

Score: 8.2
