Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Nose
Silvestry, wet moss, fern. A heady floral note. Gillyflower? Marshmallow. Slowly developing on fudgy aromas. a real complexity.
Palate
Velvety, appetising smoothness. Fudge, evaporated milk. Lovely spicy tang.
Finish
Dry, spicy. Toasted almonds. A hint of marzipan.
Comment
That frisky Speysider judiciously bottled at 45% has a lot to deliver. Will certainly light up a zen moment.

Dave Broom

Nose
Smooth, rich and elegant. Fruity weight: semi-dried soft fruits (peach), fresh cherry, toffee, tea leaf, pecan, toasted nut. Superb balance.
Palate
Ripe. Clootie dumpling mix, damson, cinnamon dusted on top of rich honeyed soft fruit. Light wood oils. Packed with flavour.
Finish
Long, ripe, dark fruits.
Comment
This has fantastic complexity and balance. Subtle yet powerful. Seamless. Very good.
