- Nose
- Very oily. Orange zest. Citrus peels. Lemon.
- Palate
- Oily. Lemon. Mustard. Pine nuts. Cream.
- Finish
- Late cress. Bitter salad leaves. Powerfully dry.
- Comment
- That distinctive pine-nut character perhaps derives from the Amontillado sherry, but its influence is otherwise restrained.

- Nose
- Amazingly dry for this distillery, showing a touch of heather and the faintest hint of something citrus.
- Palate
- Explosive start by contrast to the nose, quite peppery throughout but allowing grapey, oak depth.
- Finish
- The oak continues to fill out with vanilla.
- Comment
- This is sophisticated stuff and complex.
