77
- Nose
- Not very intense but with a distinctive rye presence. Ripe apricot, cider apple.
- Palate
- Smooth, fruity, opening on an elegant rye spiciness.
- Finish
- Warm and lingering.
- Comment
- Rye is well brought in without oak overwhelming. Water brings in a nice minty freshness.
72
- Nose
- Corny, grainy. Seems young, or at least aggressive. Light though there's also a touch of cardboard and, weirdly, ricotta cheesecake.
- Palate
- Plain start then developing some marmalade, some thick Greek yoghurt and honey.
- Finish
- Sweet and clean. Little caramel.
- Comment
- Perfectly nice, but nice isn't enough! There's such a bland similarity between most of these you wonder if it's whisky-making by committee.
