Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Nose
Fleshy, sugared almond. Needs time to open when you can find clover honey, violet. Quite syrupy and sweet. Water gives it a lift.
Palate
Light touch of pear drop. Immediate sweetness with a crunchy middle. Cheesecake base.
Finish
Long, sweet.
Comment
Give this time and you’ll find a delicious dram.

Arthur Motley

Nose
Pale sultanas, exotic fruit, kiwi and a pencillike woodiness. Cocoa.
Palate
Honeycomb sweetness, kiwi, oats, some floral notes and lemon Turkish delight. Well balanced, fruity goodness.
Finish
Dusty cocoa and a shake of spice.
Comment
There’s something breakfasty about this, like a good bowl of honeyed and wellfruited porridge.
