A bold spirit, tempered by well-timed maturation. A little flat to be truly great.

Tasting Notes

Arthur Motley

Taster

Nose: Vanilla ice cream, milk bottle chews, sultana bran, dried coconut. With time grassiness, and a farmyard whiff.

Palate: Mouth filling and malty, with a shake of spice.

Finish: Woody, drying and with complex bitterness of quality dark chocolate.

Comment: A bold spirit, tempered by well-timed maturation. A little flat to be truly great.

Score: 8

Owen Barstow

Taster

Nose: Traces of caramel and fudge at first, with developing oily (metal polish?) notes.

Palate: Lightly oily. Digestive biscuits. Toffees and toffee apples. Mint.

Finish: A warming, and curiously more-ish finish.

Comment: Not a big whisky, but comforting.

Score: 7.5
