Dave Broom
75- Nose
- Pine sap, aromatic woods, beech nut. In time a sweeter note of kumquat, then pan drop/minty sweets. Oak driven, but sweetly so.
- Palate
- Slightly thin after such an impressive nose. Plenty of wood and a touch of créme brûlée.
- Finish
- Soft, pillow-like.
- Comment
- A bit of a let down after such a great nose. A very pretty whisky but higher alcohol might have given it better impact in the mouth.
Arthur Motley
75- Nose
- Satsuma segments, nail polish, apricot cream and papaya. Then a doughy, pumice-like element, that borders on soapy.
- Palate
- Sweet, with vanilla and almonds and a lightly bitter oakiness.
- Finish
- Pretty short, but a delicate US oakiness.
- Comment
- A pretty nose but fairly uneventful on the palate. Pleasant.
