Martine Nouet
87- Nose
- Herbal. Lemon balm. Humus. Wet leaves. Vanilla rises, custard and trifle aromas. Sea spray. Beautiful.
- Palate
- Sweet and lively. Then bursting out on liquorice and spices. Nutmeg. Hint of cinnamon. Distant smoke.
- Finish
- Lingering, dry. Nutty. Cinnamon.
- Comment
- Rich and luscious. Needs a dash of water to cut spirit harshness. The marine influence is overwhelmed by wood but in a charming way.
Dave Broom
85- Nose
- Soft and creamy with perfumed smoke in the background. Tarry beaches, sandalwood. Danish oil. Wet rope. Marine. Balanced.
- Palate
- Thick, peach then a blast of peat, pepper, salt. Flows over the tongue. Tamed with water making it rounded and elegant. One to tease out.
- Finish
- The peat comes...and stays.
- Comment
- More subtle than the 18 but still feisty.
