Martine Nouet
82- Nose
- Sweet and gently phenolic. Coal smoke with a touch of soot rising up from the chimney on a wet day. Lemonade. A touch of cucumber. A pleasant refreshing mix.
- Palate
- Sweet, smooth. Velvety. The smoke is less present than on the palate. Lemon curd. Biscuity also.
- Finish
- Dry, lingering on soot and vanilla.
- Comment
- Not the big phenolic guy but a very refreshing islander. Smoke is well integrated and the aromatic display is elegant.
Rob Allanson
84- Nose
- Gentle coal tar soap. Freshly cleaned fire grate. Buttered kippers and a hint of juicy fruits.
- Palate
- A ginger biscuit quality. Smoke has been over taken by those fruits.
- Finish
- Long with the smoke playing about.
- Comment
- Very drinkable and not the peat power house you would expect. A little cracker.
