Taster

Nose: Freshly chopped pine trees. Ferns. Forest floor.

Palate: Dryish. Vegetal. Ground coriander. Fiddlehead ferns. Rhubarb.

Finish: Sea tastes: sweetness and saltiness, with the latter overwhelmingly the winner. Long.

Comment: More wood-extract, or sherry, than I remember. I prefer a drier expression.

Score: 7.8

Taster

Nose: Gutsy, citrus and oaky notes. Cracker bread/Ryvita. Water brings out orange and very malty qualities; some hessian. A touch metallic?

Palate: Medium sweet. There's good interplay between dry (wood/malt) and sweet fruits. Mid weight.

Finish: Mealy.

Comment: Surprisingly young for a 16 year-old.

Score: 7.3
