Gavin D.Smith
84- Nose
- Ginger and brown sauce. Progressively more savoury.
- Palate
- Real mouth-presence. Slightly waxy, with tropical fruit and spice.
- Finish
- Polished oak and Cherryade.
- Comment
- A drop of water really brings this whisky together.
Rob Allanson
85- Nose
- Quite meaty at first, roast pork. But there is a sweetness too, baked apples, poached pears. Hints of spice lurk too.
- Palate
- Coats the mouth, feels like slick olive oil. The spices build up gently with some dried pineapple and coconut.
- Finish
- Long and lingering.
- Comment
- An interesting whisky with layers of flavour to explore.
