Dave Broom
83- Nose
- Masses of soft fruits and maturity on show. Starts off with green mango, crystallised pineapple and banana becoming increasingly tropical as it develops. Oak in balance.
- Palate
- Medium weight, with good pooling of those fruits in the middle of the tongue. As it develops there's old waxed paper. Best neat as it is just showing its age a little.
- Finish
- Fruity but fades.
- Comment
- Balanced and mature with great tropical fruit character.
Martine Nouet
84- Nose
- Perfumy. Very fruity. A mix of not totally ripe apricot and bergamot. There is an elegant balance between tartness and sweetness. In the back, a hint of chicken broth. A touch of coconut.
- Palate
- Dry and crisp. Raw silk texture. A slight astringency gives way to a luscious explosion of exotic fruit. Pineapple and passion fruit sprinkled with ground ginger.
- Finish
- Warm dry, spicy.
- Comment
- Obviously a Bourbon cask maturation. Fruit flavours are elegantly displayed.
