Overall
Score
7.0
Nose
Hay. A distinct cereal note, old cereal bags, hint of grappa-like twigginess, fennel. Thin.
Palate
Starts very soft and quiet (lemon barley water) then lashes out, snarling. Lemon juice and heat. Would give zest and energy to a blend, but lacks finesse and quality when on its own.
Finish
Hard cereal.
Comment
A volatile, pale-faced wee dram that suddenly turns on you.
