The musty/butyric note exacerbated by the alcoholic bite, does not make an appealing concoction.

Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Butyric. Cheesy. Musty wood. Fungal touch. Not pleasant.

Palate: Dry, harsh. And the same butyric character. The alcohol is not mastered. Burning.

Finish: Warm, dry.

Comment: The musty/butyric note exacerbated by the alcoholic bite, does not make an appealing concoction.

Score: 6.5

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Damp hay lofts, a little farmyard edge. Cheddar cheese. After a while a sweet malt note comes through.

Palate: A cherry like bitterness to it, then the Cheddar comes through with a sweet almost chutney edge to it.

Finish: Dries out slowly.

Comment: An intriguing whisky. Not sure if the finishing has helped to develop the whisky further.

Score: 7
