Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 65 by Dave Broom and Gavin Smith.

Whisky Magazine is the perfect complement to the dram in your glass. Every issue brings you fascinating articles on the art, science and romance of the 'water of life', plus page after page of tasting notes.

Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Nose
Toasty and sweet, ripe and juicy. Bread pudding, light treacle, dried fruit but there’s still a grassy freshness along with oolong-like perfume.
Palate
Soft, generous and with a slow, unfolding quality. Ripe fruits. Rich and mouthfilling with light grip. Big and chewy, but balanced.
Finish
Gentle. Passion fruit juice.
Comment
A leap in quality above the rest on show here. Worth a trip to the still just to buy one.

Gavin Smith

Nose
Malt, honey and citrus notes, freshlysqueezed oranges and barley sugar.
Palate
Oily, mouth-coating, dry and attractively winey.
Finish
Long and drying, with liquorice and treacle.
Comment
Moreish!
