85- Nose
- Creamy. Mint humbugs. Mint toffee.
- Palate
- Sherryish. Nutty. raisins. Vanilla. A suggestion of trifle.
- Finish
- Quite big. Soothing. Slightly smoky.
- Comment
- A bit overbalanced by sherry, but nicely rounded by the smoky finish.
Dave Broom
90- Nose
- A little closed without water; hints of grass, crystallised fruits and butter toffee. Water brings a note of dry cracker which mellows into juicier aromas.
- Palate
- Solid rich stuff that stays in the mouth, all polished wood, soft leather, chocolate, black fruits, pipe smoke and balancing crunchiness.
- Finish
- Lush and fruity slowly crisping up.
- Comment
- Like a gentleman's club: all leather chairs, cigar smoke and murmured conversations. A beauty.
