Taster

Nose: Light and fruity. Pears in custard. Some exotic fruit. Getting creamy.

Palate: Sweet, light-bodied. More exotic fruit. The alcohol is very well mastered. Keeps fruity all the way. With a malty resence. Hint of aniseed.

Finish: Medium long, minty. Refreshing.

Comment: A pleasant dram. A touch of water brings out a refined oak frame and beeswax. A kind of spicy fruit salad.

Score: 7.9

Taster

Nose: Spirity at first, then a herbal barley sugar note comes through. Pear drops.\rPine floor cleaner, bags of potting compost. A sharp zesty edge.

Palate: Boiled sweets, a little gobstopper too. Honey roast peanuts. The oak is here\rtoo with a little bitter edge.

Finish: Warm and sweet.

Comment: The alcohol is well integrated and not overpowering, but a little water helps\rthings open out more.

Score: 8
