Taster
Nose: Prickly. Herbal. Verbena tea. Green tea too. With water,some exotic fruit.\rPineapple. Touch of vetiver.
Palate: The same prickly feel with the alcohol bite. Keeps herbal but does not develop much further. With water, creamier. Mint toffee.
Finish: Clean,dry.
Comment: Shy at first,that dram takes time to reveal an interesting profile. Water\rplays the trick !
Score: 7.7
