A well knitted dram. On the fruit side. More complex than it appears. Oak is well integrated. A pity such a treasure is lost!

Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Sweet and sour. Gooseberry. Cranberry. Blancmange. A juicy fruit smoothie. Gets creamy in time. Apple toffee.

Palate: Smooth. An appetising sweetness releasing fruity flavours. Touch of blackcurrant.

Finish: Pleasantly drier. Fresh liquorice.

Comment: A well knitted dram. On the fruit side. More complex than it appears. Oak is well integrated. A pity such a treasure is lost!

Score: 7.5

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Salicylic top notes. Celery? Furniture polish.

Palate: Chalky and thin. Chipboard. Dusty.

Finish: Not unpleasant. Wine like. Grape seeds?

Comment: Has some strange (and compelling) woody flavours. Not entirely unpleasant. If you can, try before you buy.

Score: 7.8
