Taster

Nose: Fragrant. Fresh lemon juice. Then a distant smoky note mingling with a phenolic touch. Burnt tyre and a bonfire the day after.

Palate: Crisp and dry. More smoke than on the nose. Citrussy flavours with a honeyed touch. Getting drier and spicier.

Finish: Dry, spicy with a soft cereal aftertaste.

Comment: A refreshing and straightforward dram. Light and lively.

Score: 7.6

Taster

Nose: Refined. Hints of citrus and a thin veil of smoke. This is more doused wood fire than full on peat.

Palate: The smoke becomes more prominent and is more smoked salmon that the nose. There is a sweet savoury element here too.

Finish: Short and swift.

Comment: Another good restorative for this seasonal weather.

Score: 8
