72
- Nose
- Another pinkish one. Nougat, flower stems when neat, fruity and juicy with water when there's melon, strawberry, cassis and baked banana. Good.
- Palate
- A slightly soapy start. The fruitiness which lies behind slightly hidden and the spirit seems a little covered.
- Finish
- Cloying.
- Comment
- This starts so promisingly, but the soapiness knocks it for me.
70
- Nose
- Orange squash, sugar soap and wet grass. A bit thin on the nose, with a confected cakiness.
- Palate
- Fairy liquid, with some buttery, fruit pastry.
- Finish
- More of those dishwater suds.
- Comment
- Disappointing to drink given the price tag and all the fancy frippery that goes with a bottling like this. I much prefer the 10 Years Old and Artisan cask!
