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
Floral and malty. Ivy. Sweet cereals. Fresh paint. Cedar. Polished floors. A touch of marzipan. Apples in puff pastry. Buttery.
Palate
Fresh and minty. Quite chewy. Spices emerge but not excessively so. A splash of water brings out flavours.
Finish
Satisfying, warm and spicy.
Comment
A pleasant any-time dram. Very refreshing.

Dave Broom

Nose
Lifted. Apple wood, heather, baked soft fruits mixed with cereal, citrus and pear. In time there’s notes of freshly-sawn wood, freesia and dried orange peel. Complex but light as well.
Palate
Light and fragrant. All the notes on the nose come through. Medium-bodied and gentle.
Finish
Dry and clean.
Comment
Right back on form. Is some more mature stock being blended in?
