Nose
Sweet maltiness. Cereal grains. Sandalwood. Musk. Light smoke. Light on the tongue, very smooth. Palate
Sweet. Malty but light and refreshing. Finish
Oily. Creamy. Comment
Delicate, appetising and refreshing, but falls away in the middle.
Jim Murray
Nose
Subdued slightly. Surprisingly fresh. Palate
Mouth-watering. A fine flush of intense malt tops the middle. Excellent bittersweet ratio. Finish
Now the oak kicks in, but gently so. Comment
A much busier, more complex malt than the nose suggests. Entertaining stuff.
