By no means complex but not a single wayward note, either. Perhaps too one dimensional for some, this expression further proves what an excellent malt Cooley produces.

Tasting Notes

Jim Murray

Taster

Nose: Very sweet and clean aged malt.

Palate: Light but intensely malty with a gathering of oaky spice. Excellent sweetness.

Finish: Lingering oak helps the malt keep an impressive shape on the palate.

Comment: By no means complex but not a single wayward note, either. Perhaps too one dimensional for some, this expression further proves what an excellent malt Cooley produces.

Score: 7.8

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Grassy, leafy. Herbal. Hint of charcoal. Dry.

Palate: Firm, silky, oily. Some vanilla-pod. Cereal-grain flavours.

Finish: Garden mint. Very late sweetness.

Comment: Pleasant, light. For sociable drinking.
