Nose
Brassy. Palate
Lightly peaty smokiness. Finish
Dry maltiness. Toasty. Some phenol. Comment
By today's standards, an unusually peaty Speysider.
Dave Broom
Nose
Malty with dusty oak and a whiff of barley sugar then sacking, cinders and smoke. Palate
A smoky start, wood embers, dried fruits behind. The sacking cloaks the sweet fruit. Finish
Dry. Comment
Visions of cowled monks. It is Lent I suppose.
