Martine Nouet

Nose
Fresh and lively. Green fruit. Kiwi. Honeysuckle. Pear drop. Muesli. Dried apple skin. Lemon.
Palate
Round, sweet, fruity. Citussy. A little grainy.
Finish
Fades away quickly but leaves a pleasant feel. Almond. A touch of chives.
Comment
A refreshing dram. Straightforward, clean. No complexity but it does not boast sophistication. Simplicity and natural are also great qualities.

Dave Broom

Nose
Fragrant and gentle. Coconut, tangerine, white fruits, elderflower, peach blossom, apple skin, freesia. Sweetly pure.
Palate
Perfumed, delicate and silky. Balsa wood, cream, coconut, citrus peels, light oak, candle wax.
Finish
Spicy, floral and lightly drying.
Comment
Holds its own beautifully against some heavyweight competition. Subtle.
