Peter Mulryan
75- Nose
- A delicate waft of mashed banana and spice jars.
- Palate
- Soft gentle nuttiness, echoes of fortified wine.
- Finish
- Spirity.
- Comment
- Triple distilled whiskey drawn from bourbon, sherry and port wood...what a balancing act. It usually works a treat, but this time the elements are strangely out of kilter.
Dave Broom
80- Nose
- Big, fat and sweet. Butter and raisins. Forms slowly with pineapple, stewed fruits, malted milk, coconut, cereal, cocoa, orange. Big (but balanced) oak.
- Palate
- Round and rich. Sweet dried fruits, brazil nut, coffee, soft malt, popcorn. Good grip. Oak in balance.
- Finish
- Long. Hazelnut.
- Comment
- Plenty of oak but the spirit holds its own. An extra dimension to the 10.
