Tasting Notes

Arthur Motley

Nose
Raspberry sweeties, a little yeastiness and a whole bag of lemon sherberts.
Palate
Citric, malty round texture and a grassy finish.
Finish
Utterly cleansing dryness with a grassy bitterness.
Comment
Cute as a button.

Dave Broom

Nose
Fragrant. Stewed fruits, daffodil, yellow fruit pastille, orange pith, pineapple cubes, barley sugar, cut grass. Blackboard dusters, powdered ginger/ginger beer (a whisky mule?). A little sappy.
Palate
This is where it delivers, the sappiness mellows into late spring blossom and white fruits. Like sticking your head into a bouquet of flowers.
Finish
Gentle fruit.
Comment
Another which manages to be both delicate but complex. The best balanced on show.
