Tasting Notes

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Initially sweet then this lovely smokiness develops. There is a hot dry quality too, like warm sand or ground\rblack pepper.

Palate: Barley sugar sweets and soft fruits and apple skins. That smoke is more bonfire now with a peat edge.

Finish: Long with the smoke still going.

Comment: This is better than other Brora's I have tried. Balanced and poised.

Score: 8.2

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Malty and grassy. Ripe straw. Orange blossom honey. Cider apple and dried pear.

Palate: Sweet and smooth at start. But soon drying on teasing spices. Quite hot.

Finish: Dry, soothing on creamy custard with a nutty touch.

Comment: A warm character if not hot. It needs a dash of water to find its balance and round up. Certainly a winter warmer.

Score: 7.6
