Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Slightly metallic and unformed. Light walnut cake. Toasted oatmeal,\rhazelnut and a whiff of cigar smoke.

Palate: Clean and quite light. Here, the cereal note here has gone into honey nut cornflakes.

Finish: Sugary. Then soft smoke.

Comment: If it's a chimney it's one above a sweet shop.

Score: 7

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Smoked salmon and burning wood. Toffee and cream notes too. Very\rgentle layers of spice.

Palate: The peat gives way to soft fruit and delicious spices, sweet pears in brandy.

Finish: Dries on gentle smoke.

Comment: Does what it says on the tin, but not really that one dimensional.

Score: 8.3
