Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Grassy. Somewhat harsh. Not much expression of maturation. The colour is very pale for a 12 Year Old whisky. A citrussy hint. Yeasty.

Palate: Sweet and fresh. More fruit than on the nose. Ripe pear, lemonade. Sherbety.

Finish: Dry and short. Ginger ale.

Comment: A pleasant refreshing feel on the palate but a thin aromatic profile.

Score: 7.5

Rob Allanson

Palate: A light cigar note, orange zest, lemon sorbet, Belgian waffles.

Finish: Crisp and fizzy.

Comment: A decent restorative dram.

Score: 8
