Dave Broom
80- Nose
- Big and oily but with a wild fruit character: rowanberry jelly, tomato purée, Madeira cake.
- Palate
- Drier than expected with a peppery kick. The waxiness is immediately there, clinging to the tongue while the smoke emerges half-way along. Great length and best with a drop of water.
- Finish
- Rich, clinging lightly smoked.
- Comment
- Elegant and highly individual. Takes no prisoners.
Arthur Motley
87- Nose
- Christmas cake mix. All spice. There is also evidence of phenols, though not peat or smoke, more like oil paints or floor polish.
- Palate
- Some burnt buns, a rich underlying raisin toffee sweetness and a grassy peat.
- Finish
- Light rubberiness and some more of that peat, although in subtle quantities.
- Comment
- A big spirit tempered by a characterful cask. Very enjoyable.
