75
- Nose
- Perfumy. Delicate. Garden mint and honeycomb. A touch of smoke. Apple juice and dry hay when diluted.
- Palate
- Smooth at start but a bit too soft. The delicacy of the nose is not there. Malty with a toffeish mintiness. A cardboard touch underneath. Appley with water.
- Finish
- Not very exciting. Clean though.
- Comment
- A pleasant dram, especially with a splash of water but lacks nerve and buoyancy.
77
- Nose
- Light with distinct smoke. Behind there are fragrant white fruits, crab apple, crystallised fruits. In time, a light nuttiness.
- Palate
- Soft sweet start the peat held in check by balancing acidity. Fresh, lightly smoky and clean.
- Finish
- Sweet, with smoke drifting by.
- Comment
- The smoke is a surprise, but well put together.
