- Nose
- Sweet and enticing. Crème caramel, orange cake, shortbread. Barley sugar. Touch of water chestnut.
- Palate
- Rich, sweet and mellow. Mouth coating. Alcohol is perfectly tamed. Very satisfying. Cooked fruit with soft spices.
- Finish
- Intense, warm and lingering.
- Comment
- A liquid dessert. Reminds me of a rich Balvenie. Superb dram.
80
- Nose
- Gentle. Bread pudding, stewed apple, toasted rice. Slightly oily with some dried fenugreek, mace, apple skin. Has finesse.
- Palate
- Delicate smoky start. Cognac like: dried fruit, grilled nut alongside a haunting dried rose petal perfume.
- Finish
- Ripe, sesame, waxy.
- Comment
- Best neat. Has that classic ‘open' character that typifies Japanese whiskies.
