Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Lightly perfumed, malty and dry with some clover, banana and lemon.

Palate: Soft, gentle, sweet and clean with typical Tamdhu juicy maltiness and a hint of clover honey.

Finish: Soft but short.

Comment: Mild-mannered though some would say bland.

Score: 7

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Sweet lime (am I being suggestible? The whisky is that colour).

Palate: Firm, smooth. Dry toffee. Flowery. Lemony.

Finish: Slightly resiny. Peppery.

Comment: No, I don't think I was being suggestible. An unusually complex Tamdhu.

Score: 7.8
