Tasting Notes

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Powerful alcohol masking an underlying delicate sweetness that comes out with water. Leather tones\rand horse blankets.

Palate: Another sweet performance but with a menthol whiff that emerges with a little water.

Finish: Just disappears leaving a lingering spiced note.

Comment: A very substantial dram.

Score: 8.2

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: More cask involvement here. Mature. Somewhat akin to a trifle (cream, custard,red fruits,sponge cake,\ralcohol) pear and a light.touch of spicy (anise) oak.

Palate: Holds higher alcohol well showing there's plenty of flavours locked in. Good grip.

Finish: Spices galore.

Comment: Balanced,mature and elegant. More robust than you expect from Lowlands. Recommended.

Score: 8.2
