Dave Broom
81- Nose
- Masses of stewing rhubarb and fresh gooseberry tart with a slightly burnt base. This mix of freshness and a rich praline note continues with water.
- Palate
- Lengthy, relaxed with good concentration of sweetness, especially when neat. That needle seen on the nose is there alongside some chocolate ganache.
- Finish
- Clean and soft.
- Comment
- Good palate whisky, but keep the water on the side.
Martine Nouet
90- Nose
- Intense, deep, complex. Fruit cake. Toffee. Oak is superbly integrated. Cedar. Candied orange. Opens on toasted notes.
- Palate
- Thick, mouth coating. Unwinds rich coffee toffee, crème caramel and toasted nuts. Getting drier and spicier. Oak is elegantly present, framing that rich Dundee cake character.
- Finish
- Dry, spicy. Lingers on oak and cedar notes. Cubèbe pepper and exotic fruit.
- Comment
- A beautifully balanced and matured dram. Rich, complex, aristocratic.
