Dave Broom
82- Nose
- A smoky delivery. Wet grass, cod liver oil, tar, heather root, slightly medicinal. A very clean peatiness in which everything seems well-defined and which builds to a smoky bacon note.
- Palate
- Powerful smokiness balanced by an oily centre. Smoky, but with a fragrant nature and sweet, juicy centre. Rich.
- Finish
- Dry. Smoked fish. Hessian.
- Comment
- Complex, great balance. Hidden malt? Not any more.
