Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet Nose Herbal. Green tea. Tangerine sherbet. Biscuity. Red fruit. Hint of wet moss. Fragrant and light. Palate Sweet maltiness. Leafy. Peppermint. Touch of violet. Not very eloquent. Finish Short, crisp and dry. Pleasant minitness followed by a harder bitter note. Comment More a summery malt than a warmer-up. Pleasant but not captivating. Mid-palate is a bit weak.

Dave Broom Nose Slightly citric, green apple, coconut. Good weight, soft summer fruits. Palate Medium weight. Malt/biscuit with a slightly floury quality. Sweet, limey. Finish Dry, malty. Comment Slightly more weight and a little drier than the standard, but less defined.
