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
Phenolic, with turfy smoke. Seems very young, with a sulphury edge. A greasy and slightly feinty note.
Palate
Sweeter than the nose suggests. The peat is better behaved than you expect. Slightly medicinal and slightly better with water.
Finish
Charred sticks.
Comment
Ominously pale and initial suspicions were proved correct. This has been bottled way too young.

Gavin Smith

Nose
The yeasty, fresh nose of new make, plus a whiff of peat.
Palate
Again, the dominant impression is of youth. Yeast and vibrant spices.
Finish
Short and spicy.
Comment
Is this old enough to be out by itself?
