Nose: Custard slices,cherry stone/marzipan and a hint of angelica before a shift to freesia then iced biscuits. High toned. A little naked with water suggestive of youth,but has character.
Palate: Gentle and fairly sweet. Lychee like fruits. Well balanced. Moves into tinned peach. Best neat as water brings out a new make note.
Finish: Short and clean.
Comment: Mackmyra comes of age and it's good.
Score: 7.4
