Tasting Notes

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Delicate smoked fish, like oak smoked trout. Wood polish and leather gloves. Warm Rye bread and proved dough. Some lilies just past their prime.

Palate: Sweet and clean. Lemon zest zing, cumin spice and a little Ras el hanout.\rSweetness over time. Then a briny note, oily fish and smoke.

Finish: That smoked fish note then warm spices at the end.

Comment: A great restorative dram post dinner.

Score: 8

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Intensely fragrant. A bouquet of malty aromas intertwined with mature oak. With a delicate floral note. Fading rose. Opens on smoke and an oyster note.

Palate: Crisp and harsh. The feel of raw silk. Getting sweeter after a spicy burst.\rFresh sensation. Still this floral note. Turkish delight. Fizzy. Gently burning.\rSome smoke and a mineral note.

Finish: Warm, dry, spicy.

Comment: An intense, enticing and rather condensed whisky.

Score: 8.2
