Dave Broom
74- Nose
- Young,lively and swaggering.Lots of lemon peel and kumquat bitterness. The rye flour is back along with an almost lavender like perfume. Some linden blossom,cumin seed.
- Palate
- Very light and surprisingly restrained. Approachable and soft. Little bit of nutmeg just on the finish.
- Finish
- Zesty.
- Comment
- A solid enough performer,but lacks brio.
Rob Allanson
79- Nose
- Playful and youthful. Swaps from sweet citrus to a bitter note. Ground spices with a floral edge.
- Palate
- Clean,carries that floral note through it. Slight woodiness with a little rye spice towards the end.
- Finish
- Refreshing and soft.
- Comment
- Considering its age a more mellow drink than you would expect.
