Oak plays a bigger part there. Spices dry up the demerara sweetness. Nothing much to write home about though.

Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: A similar profile as the previous one. More biscuity maybe. Not very expressive.

Palate: Sweeter at start, then becoming watery and cheering up on spices at mid palate. Chestnut purée. Becoming tannic.

Finish: Short, dry, spicy.

Comment: Oak plays a bigger part there. Spices dry up the demerara sweetness. Nothing much to write home about though.

Score: 7.3

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Here we go again...the same character, this time with more sulphur, fresh fig, dried fruit and chocolate more depth.

Palate: Oily, similar to the 10 Years Old, slightly thicker. Sweet, caramel, black banana, molasses.

Finish: Thick.

Comment: The base spirit seems very sweet. Lacks class.

Score: 7.5
