Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Jelly babies,super-ripe fruits, blueberry/sloe with light aromatic bitters. Water brings out home-made jam note. Stewed fruits.

Palate: Jam skimmings. Tayberry oak. Very fruity. Spirit completely swamped.

Finish: Confected.

Comment: More of a cocktail than a single malt.

Score: 6

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Unusual. A mix of vegetal and fruity aromas. Ivy,Cider apple. A musty note like that of a room kept closed for a long time. Some sweeter notes too. Red grape juice. A touch of Toblerone.

Palate: Sweet,sickly sweet. Oaky flavours. Something medicinal like a cough\rsyrup. Sweet. The alcohol is not tamed

Finish: Short but burning.

Comment: A young whisky? Seems dislocated. What type of oak? Obviously something special. Not convincing.

Score: 7
