Dave Broom
82- Nose
- Luscious,sweet and thick. Soft caramel toffee with some milk chocolate and a little lift from a sulphury cedar note. With water there's immediate fireworks but once they've blazed off you've got dried sweet fruits.
- Palate
- There's light smoke here. Thick on the tongue. Good grip but with sufficient rich,mature fruit to balance wel.l
- Finish
- Long,lightly leathery.
- Comment
- A 70s playboy...all mirrored shades, suede jacket,woody aftershave and cigar.
Martine Nouet
70- Nose
- Unmistakeably sherried. Dark wood. Damp earth floor and musty walls.
- Palate
- Sweet at start then giving way to oak. Grippy,especially as alcohol is not well mastered.
- Finish
- Oaky, dry and slightly burning.
- Comment
- The sherry influence has wiped out the distillery character. What's the fun to inhale and drink oak juice?
