Tasting Notes

Dave Broom Nose Fragranced. Wild and herbal: coumarin, bergamot, wild thyme. With water some smoke, shoe poilish and an oiliness. Palate This is roundness with an interesting fragrance and lightly smoky. The oil gives a fatness, texture and middle. Finish Not to mention an aromatic finish. Comment It’s not hard, it’s not chemically, it doesn’t have a bitter edge, or taste of glue, it is actually good!

Ian Buxton Nose Thin – peat smoke. Palate Peat smoke very forward and consistent. Finish Consistent, develops some complexity. Comment More than just acceptable.
