Martine Nouet
75- Nose
- Enticing. Cloved orange. Moth balls. A touch of old leather armchair. Shoe polish. Smoky. Cold ashtray. A marine hint.
- Palate
- Sherry. A bit cardboardy. Distant coaltar. Date chutney. Getting bitter. Oak speaks out.
- Finish
- Dry, bitter.
- Comment
- The nose is more interesting than the palate. A full bodied character which has flirted a bit too long with wood. Might suit cigar palates.
Dave Broom
70- Nose
- Dullish green rim. Dried sage and lavender/parma violet, seashore. Water increases the perfume lavender eau de toilette.
- Palate
- Soapy and sweet though with plenty of smoke trying to cover it up. A peat fire in a lady's bathroom?
- Finish
- Nutty yet tacky.
- Comment
- This is where Bowmore was stuck for too long.
