Tasting Notes

Arthur Motley

Nose
Butyric, peach air freshener and a queasy cakiness. Like some showdown between two gateaux: as if a Battenburg attempted to outnancy a French Fancy.
Palate
Incredibly sweet, sugary and then nothing of merit. Better than the nose.
Finish
Pass!
Comment
Not to my taste. Only useful as a weapon in hand-to-hand combat.

Owen Barstow

Nose
Waxy at first, then apples, pears, cider, perry, calvados...Richer, crumbly chocolate cake undertones.
Palate
Creamy toffees. Egg custard. It is smoother and shows greater finesse with water.
Finish
Creamy, mint toffee richness. Some milk chocolate.
Comment
Somewhat lighter on the palate than the nose suggests. But still a firm, chewy, whisky for after dinner.
