Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Nose
Forestry bouquet. Polished pinefloor. Mushroom quiche. Peppermint. A chalky touch.
Palate
Mouthcoating. Rich and warm. Stewed apples. Earthy root.
Finish
Long, minty. Ginger.
Comment
A hearty fellow, warming and expressive. A hip flask dram for a wet day.

Dave Broom

Nose
Sweet yet slightly earthy. Hot bracken. New trainers, old cobbler’s shop, peat. More intensity with water, light oak, apricot. Fresh chestnut mushroom.
Palate
Light smoke uncoiling over syrupy fruit, grass, spent fires. Quite ethereal.
Finish
Crisp and dry.
Comment
Good, but needs some oomph.
