- Nose
- Big, soft, smokiness
- Palate
- Assertive. Attention-grabbing. Lively acidity. The faintest dash of malt vinegar. Malty. Bittersweet.
- Finish
- Long, warming.
- Comment
- Bring on the kippers.
85
- Nose
- Gentle waft of creosote and embers, above which a jasmine flower blossoms, accompanied by pear drops, linseed notes and a hint of vanilla.
- Palate
- Luscious sweetness with creamy crème caramel, background waft of sweet, earthy peat and chargrilled notes, before jasmine tea.
- Finish
- Creamy crème caramel and digestive biscuit sweetness with a waft of dry peatiness.
- Comment
- Sweet-dry-savoury-fruit balance, intense but elegant. A dram with drama.
