A subtle yet characterful malt. Sweetness is teased up by dry spices. Beautiful structure. The proof that you can be young and accomplished.

Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Delicately scented. Lemony. Semi-dried apricots. Peach in syrup. Hazelnuts. Quite an intricate aromatic build-up. Shortbread developing on creamier notes.

Palate: Smooth and sweet. Citrussy. Mandarin. Muesli.

Finish: Dry, crisp, spicy, chilli. Almondy notes.

Comment: A subtle yet characterful malt. Sweetness is teased up by dry spices. Beautiful structure. The proof that you can be young and accomplished.

Score: 8

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Light. Green fruits, elderflower, cereal. Pure and sweet. Water makes it like an old-fashioned lemonade. Blossom-like.

Palate: Sweet to start, then a firm maltiness. Lively, light fruits. Effervescent.

Finish: Perks up nicely.

Comment: Well made, with good balance.

Score: 7.8
