Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Nose
Huge, butter-fat oaky notes. Sweet with caramelised fruit sugars, plum jam. Water brings out a candied peel note. Perfumed and slightly minty.
Palate
Lots of oak lactone and just enough grip to give structure and interest. Nutty malt and in time a strangely exotic rose petal/angelica flavour.
Finish
Floral.
Comment
More of a whisky spread than a drink. For those with a sweet tooth.

Martine Nouet

Nose
Fruity. Pineapple juice. Spicy. Allspice, cloves. Orange peel. Medicinal like a rum grand arôme. Sandalwood. Very fragrant.
Palate
Sweet at start then displaying a sensuous spicy palette. Rum again ! Demerara custard.
Finish
Tangy, spicy. Lingering.
Comment
Quite enticing and heady but so dressed up, and reminiscent of a rum. The cask has knocked the maltiness down.
