77- Nose
- Faintly peaty, herbal. Chinese tea. Jasmine.
- Palate
- Smooth, dry maltiness. Perhaps that tea was Lapsang Souchong. Then sweeter flavours develop. Darjeeling? Eventually, a honeyish sweetness.
- Finish
- Flowery. Crisp, clean.
- Comment
- Feminine. Elegant. Having talked myself into an oriental mind-set, I begin to wonder whether this whisky would accompany some Asian dishes.
Dave Broom
80- Nose
- Clean and initally dry nose which sweetens up in time: vanilla/butter, light spice and cereal.
- Palate
- Fairly dry start: spicy and nutty with lemon-accented fruit then a creamy soft centre. A lovely medium-rich rich nuttiness. Evolves well.
- Finish
- Soft with a spicy tingle.
- Comment
- On the lighter side but attractive.
