80
- Nose
- Tobacco pouch and crisp wood with some signs of maturity. Black banana and a herbal note. Oak driven.
- Palate
- Sweet start banana and raspberry sweets. The oak is quite grippy but not unpleasantly so. Oranges and a silky texture. Long and juicy.
- Finish
- Soft and then drying and then returns to an apricot note and some cocoa.
- Comment
- All comes together at the end.
87
- Nose
- Light fruity notes such as honeydew melon, pineapple and lychee are underpinned by a wax jacket/candlewax element. White chocolate and some drying spice. The chlorine whiff of a swimming pool possibly there too.
- Palate
- Pineapple and nutmeg spice.
- Finish
- Chocolate.
- Comment
- Good complexity and typical of this hearty distillery.
