Taster

Nose: Perfumy, fruity. Like being in a sun-exposed orchard on a scorcher. Ripe juicy peaches. Apricot blossom. A touch of minty freshener. Appetising.

Palate: Mellow and round at start. Oily feel. Sweet maltiness, followed by a burst of spicy flavours.

Finish: Lingering and spicy. Beautifully dovetailing.

Comment: A superb fruity expression, with a summery aromatic profile. Water makes it even more sensuous. Definitely morish.

Score: 8.8

Taster

Nose: Buttery, intense and lightly oily, then a blast of exotic herbs and spices (fresh fenugreek, pepper tree leaves). Then comes porcini mushroom, passionfruit, syrup, caramel and vanilla.

Palate: Great balance here between cask and spirit. Peachy, then a light grip, sweet fruits.

Finish: Crushed black fruits.

Comment: Multilayered with hidden depths and subtle sweetness. A marvellous addition to a fascinating and groundbreaking, innovative range.

Score: 8.8
