Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 27 by Martine Nouet and Dave Broom.

Whisky Magazine is the perfect complement to the dram in your glass. Every issue brings you fascinating articles on the art, science and romance of the 'water of life', plus page after page of tasting notes.

Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Nose
Elegant and light. Vibrant gingerbread. Spicy. Stewed apricot. A hint of toasted almonds.
Palate
Smooth and soothing. Liquorice. Develops into creamy custard flavours.
Finish
A bit too soft but later enhanced by a spicy note, releasing a slight bitterness. Chewed stalk.
Comment
Quite a pleasant pre-dinner dram, with light nibbles perhaps. A little shy though. Would yield more at a higher alcoholic strength or in a few years.

Dave Broom

Nose
Soft and malty. In time there’s heather honey, orange and that nutty spicy note which keeps recurring. Water brings out sweet tobacco.
Palate
A light, dry, malty start then a really spicy mid-palate. Medium-bodied with a lovely balance struck between spice, dry nut and sweetness.
Finish
Spicy, slightly dry.
Comment
There’s plenty going on here. Not big, but has real charm.
