Nose
Spirity. Jumps right up your nostrils. After a wee while, develops on sweeter notes. Lemon drops, barley sugar, vanilla syrup.
Palate
Tangy, fizzy in a refreshing way. Yeasty. Tastes like a dry pear cider. Tickles the tongue.
Finish
Dry, slightly burning. Touch of ginger. Bitter apple skin.
Comment
Unusual. Very tickly but water tames it and brings a fresh fruity flavours out.

Nose
Light and fragrant, daffodil, slightly sappy, perfumed lemon (slightly artificial). Water exposes a hard edge, grappa-like.
Palate
Very sweet and sugary to start. High alcohol. Floral notes. Apple purée. Spices.
Finish
Barley sugar.
Comment
This needs more time in cask. Well distilled though.
