Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Nose
Fresh and estery (acetone, pear, cooking apple, linoleum?) with light floral and citric notes Some barley sugar sweetness. Better with water.
Palate
Sweet and direct. Flowers an intense sweetness: banana with brown sugar. Light structure, decent balance.
Finish
Sugary almond biscuits.
Comment
A perfectly pretty dram but it is almost too light. Even delicate whiskies need backbone.

Arthur Motley

Nose
Lovely combination of crystallised orange, a little toffee and some lemon zest. Some fresh cut grass.
Palate
Fruit, toffee and a bold maltiness.
Finish
Drying and long-lasting malt character.
Comment
Very pleasant youngish malt whisky. Not ground-breaking but a credit to any cabinet.
