Martine Nouet
78- Nose
- Grassy and malty. Camomile. Malt flour. Butterscotch. Chestnut purée.
- Palate
- Oily and rich. Coats the palate. A faint sweetness then a spicy kick. The alcohol bites the tongue. Aniseed. Fennel and a touch of mint.
- Finish
- Warm. spicy. dry.
- Comment
- That whisky definitely needs water to cut the edges. Incredibly oily. With a good dash of water, refreshing and invigorating.
Rob Allanson
80- Nose
- Clotted cream kicks off a very complex nose. A little nutty with some malt notes. Almost a green feel to it, a grass edge, dried herbs.
- Palate
- Thick and coating. The creamy notes come through with a poached pear and custard edge.
- Finish
- Sweet and dry.
- Comment
- Great nose but it does not follow through. That said a very restorative dram for cold nights.
