Comment: A trip to the bakery and home for tea.

Bethany Whymark

Taster

Nose: A bit like rarebit – toasted sourdough, cheese, and sharp mustard. Then ground almonds, caramelised sugar, lemon zest, oat biscuits, cooked meringue, cut grass, and cilantro.

Palate: Medium. Fresh doughnuts with powdered sugar. Vanilla bean paste, golden syrup, baked apricot, fresh strawberry, and brown-sugar oat latte. Hints of coriander and wholegrain mustard.

Finish: Medium, on toasted pine nuts.

Comment: Quite boldly flavoured for a whisky at its proof.

Score: 7.9
