Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Back to oiliness again. This time oilskins along with cream, light smoke and an earthy quality. Cherry and pear.

Palate: Fragrant fruitiness. Very lifted and charming. Tinned cling peaches...

Finish: Pears topped with tinned cream.

Comment: Light and discreet. Perfectly pleasant but not exactly exciting.

Score: 7.5

Arthur Motley

Taster

Nose: Candied lemon, some smoke, and a slightly sulphury in the background. Fruit salad and some dry grassiness.

Palate: Sweet malt, fruit cocktail and vanilla custard, with a lightly syrupy texture.

Finish: Custard cream biscuits.

Comment: Not overly complex but very pleasant flavour and well textured. A sunny session dram.

Score: 8
