Tasting Notes

Jim Murray

Taster

Nose: Genuine depth and weight here. The nose depends on clean oak, lavender and a sprig of mint. An aroma captured from a summer garden.

Palate: Firm mouthfeel then an explosion of acacia honey controlled, somewhat, by soft oak.

Finish: Long, cream toffee, then bitter coffee and orange peel, finale. But with honey in the middle.

Comment: A thought-provoking, complex and enjoyable whisky.

Score: 8.3

Palate: Firm maltiness. Vanilla pods.

Finish: Very fragrant. Hint of peat. Long. Glowing.

Comment: Liqueur-ish. With dessert?
