Tasting Notes

Dave Broom Nose Sugary sweet and delicate. Some crystallised fruits, lemon with cut flower, quince, but also a sharp note. Palate Light, but hot with a touch of spice. Lilac. Finish Flour and flowers. Comment No great complexity and a little green.

Arthur Motley Nose Pear and lemon peel. Dough, damp cloths and white pepper. Tinned pears. Palate Pear and smoked meats, but it seems to exist at the top of the mouth, without any malty undercarriage. Finish Chalky. Comment A strange, floaty dram suited to summer drinking.
