Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Baked pears and tinned custard,then bran and cardboard,then green plum. Blowsy and cooked. Lacks definition.

Palate: Thick and sweet,like sweetened hot chocolate. Malty.Sweet and simple. It's trying to be something it isn't.

Finish: Clean and nutty

Comment: Old Blended/3 Years Old'

Score: 6

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Prickly. Immature spirit. Green oak. A sweet note of toffee apple.

Palate: Very sweet,almost sugary. Pine resin and toffee.

Finish: Very short,quickly fading.

Comment: Work in progress? Too young to be bottled. Sweetness is not all. The dilution to 40% does not help.

Score: 6.5
