Taster

Nose: Fresh limes. Vegetal. Sea air.

Palate: Medium. Firm. Sweet start. Truffle oil. Whole-grain mustard. Salt.

Finish: Stingingly appetising. Long.

Comment: Exuberant interplay of sweet and dry flavours, pivoted on a firm malt background.

Score: 8.8

Taster

Nose: Complex. Vanilla, poached pear, wax, peat, seaweed, Danish oil and a whiff of the cowshed.

Palate: Rich and complex, this unfolds slowly and has richness, balance, texture, sweet waxy fruits and a lift of smoke. Some package.

Finish: Cigar ash.

Comment: OK, so who is going to stump up the cash to get Brora up and running again?

Score: 9
