Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Toasted. Cigar wrapper, hard toffee. Oily and juicy with some orange zest. Fairly boisterous.

Palate: Dry oak, blonde tobacco, cigarette ash. Cereal, slight mint. Not knitted. Doesn't cope with water.

Finish: Dry. Short.

Comment: Slightly angular. Not a lot seems to have happened.

Score: 7.3

Arthur Motley

Taster

Nose: Ripe melon, guava and a general perfumed fruitiness. Blackcurrant yoghurt. Warm lemon sponge cake, and perhaps a distant, background smoke.

Palate: Baked fruit, and a little waxiness, with a complex, aged woodiness.

Finish: Lightly medicinal.

Comment: Subtle and delicate, perhaps a little too much so.

Score: 7.8
