Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: An odd pewter-like colour. Light to the point of neutrality. Asparagus, grass and green apple.

Palate: The grassiness continues then is abruptly replaced by a confected rosehip syrup note. A garden centre in the rain.

Finish: Fades but with a slight greasy quality.

Comment: Seems cobbled together.

Score: 6

Arthur Motley

Taster

Nose: Gala melon, wheat, some floral notes and some Satsuma pith. A light meaty note was present, but was not enough to put you off.

Palate: Sweet and fruity in a peach slice kind of way. Vanilla.

Finish: Light sweetness.

Comment: Very light, easy going dram, slips down easy enough.

Score: 7.5
