Tasting Notes

Arthur Motley

Nose
Lemony, doughy and floral. Orange blossom and warm bread.
Palate
A rounded maltiness and a little ripe fruitiness.
Finish
Drying, earthy and slightly bitter. Not its strong point.
Comment
An fine dram to start off a tasting, but not enough interest to engage you the whole night long.

Dave Broom

Nose
Light, floral and a little dumb. Butter (unsalted!), scone mix, a hint of jasmine, broom flower (pea pod) slightly immature. In time, damp washing, putty, earth (a little grubby).
Palate
Light, muscat like, delicate. A hint of sweetness in the centre but pretty ethereal stuff. You feel it could blow away like a dandelion fluff.
Finish
Slightly green. Sugary.
Comment
Just needs a middle palate lift...and a bit more mature stock vatted in?
