Nose
Pure, clean and fresh. Malty and minty. Green apple. Freshly squeezed tangerine. Hint of resin. Tantalizing. Honeycomb. Palate
Deceptively sweet. Spices burst in a beautiful circus of warm flavours. Drier than expected from the nose but still so satisfying. Finish
Dry, spicy. Toasted almond with an oaky grip. Comment
A model of balance and elegancy. A first class Speysider.
Dave Broom
Nose
Creamy and quite simple. Lightly floral, green apple, nut, sap. Water brings out copper coins. Palate
Lifted, slightly smoky (burnt grass). Firm, toasty oak, heather. Peppery from mid-palate on. Finish
Hot and peppery. Nettle. Comment
Seems young.
