Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Nose
Mature and elegant with a beautiful exotic fragrance. Light resin, date, ginger, Turkish Delight.
Palate
Unctuous with a slow release of flavours. Allspice and cinnamon all the way. Baked pineapple, mint. Superb balance.
Finish
A dusting of rose petals.
Comment
Magnificent, but I hate to think of the price!

Martine Nouet

Nose
Intense. Rich. Toffee apple, sticky toffee pudding. Oak is well integrated. Dates and figs.
Palate
Satin like. Oily but not cloying. Toffee, chocolate, cappuccino parfait. Outburst on spices. Minty liquorice at the back.
Finish
Long, drying on oaky tones. A touch of brazil nut.
Comment
A very satisfying afterdinner dram.
