Nose
Tangy, vibrant. Summery. Green wood. Freesia. Palate
Sweet. Flowing. A bit sharp. Minty. Dill. Touch of coconut milk. Finish
Dry, spicy. Burning. Comment
Quite a light character for a Highland malt. Water helps but still a bit rough. Even on a frosty morning!
Dave Broom
Nose
Suede, with ripe berry fruits. A slightly earthy note. Palate
Lifted to start, violet. Slightly fizzy with gentle sweetness. Begins to deepen and broaden in the mouth. Good presence. Sweet and dry (earthy) together. Finish
Light white fruits and oak. Comment
The fruit goes one way the oak the other.
