Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Nose
Mature notes cut with celery salt, sweet oak. Dried peach, musk, and coconut. Complex.
Palate
Good flow of flavours: Bounty bars, light cinnamon, then ginger, stewed rhubarb, clove and ripe fruits. There’s a strawberry lift and some marzipan as well. Medium weight.
Finish
Long and elegant.
Comment
You’d never guess this was 35. Great life, balance and bags of character. A beauty.

Arthur Motley

Nose
Raisins, Madeira cake and ginger thins. Underneath this is a melange of fruits: baked apples, pineapple and strawberry. Perhaps a light, sweet soapiness.
Palate
A silky almost soapy texture, with blueberry muffin, and strawberry-flavoured toffee.
Finish
Burnt wood and more strawberry.
Comment
No water required, as this brought out a soapiness for me. A very satisfying old malt.
