Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: A butyric touch. Creamy cheese (reblochon?). Fruity notes slowly rise up. Gooseberry. Juicy pears.

Palate: Sweet even sugary. The cheesy note comes back. Not very aromatic.

Finish: Dry, short, fades quickly.

Comment: Should we try pairing that whisky with cheese? I am not convinced...

Score: 7

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Takes time to open, then gives soft fruits, vanilla and white chocolate.

Palate: Spun sugar and icing sugar. A slight off note towards the end.

Finish: Short and sharp.

Comment: Promised so much but was let down by that off note.

Score: 7.1
