Martine Nouet
85- Nose
- Delicate, fruity and creamy. Peaches in syrup. Rhubarb marmalade. Burnt twigs. Pine cone. Hint of mushroom broth. Wet sand. Touch of bog myrtle and pepper. Develops on buttery notes. Shortbread. Quite complex for a teenager.
- Palate
- Sweet and sour. Lemon meringue pie. Soot and smoke. Candied rhubarb. Luscious.
- Finish
- Gingery and dry.
- Comment
- An enticing young beauty. Matches subtlety with character.
Dave Broom
85- Nose
- Moderate intensity showing beautifully integrated phenols: lightly perfumed (herbs), farmland, then sea spray, bitumen and finally smoked ham, kippers. Vibrant and complex.
- Palate
- Great mix of sweetness and phenolic depth: rosemary oil, bayleaf. An oily quality which allows the flavours to extend across the palate.
- Finish
- Cooked meats, sweet smoke.
- Comment
- Faultless balance. Has an extra dimension which just edges it past the Bowmore.
