77
- Nose
- Lemon grass. Dry grass. Reedy. Cereal grain. Papery. Newsprint.
- Palate
- Starts with a dry maltiness. Lively development. Fruit pies: lemon meringue; gooseberry; pumpkin, the latter dusted with cinnamon and ginger.
- Finish
- Spicy, hot.
- Comment
- Quite assertive for Bladnoch. Not keen on the papery character. Quality of wood?
80
- Nose
- High alcohol and quite medicinal. Butterscotch hiding in background. Lightly vegetal when reduced.
- Palate
- Great presence. Forceful masculine and relatively unsophisticated. Banana and toffee.
- Finish
- Freshly cooked and buttered, al dente green beans. Gutsy but not long.
- Comment
- Unusual but a bit of a crowd pleaser.
