Martine Nouet
72- Nose
- Floral. Fading roses. Almond. Sandalwood. Touch of curry – reminded me of opening the door of an Indian restaurant. Distant echo of smoke.
- Palate
- Soft. Watery. Light oak and not much more.
- Finish
- Not so short though. Slightly oaky. Drying on soft spices.
- Comment
- The nose lets us expect some exotic promises. Did too much dilution blow all that galore off? Disappointing.
Dave Broom
80- Nose
- Heavy and concentrated with layers of aroma. Sherry (raisin, Dundee cake) and smoke, but also a moist coconutty edge. Cooked black fruits. Rich.
- Palate
- Drier than you expect with plenty of peat. Leather, burning heather, antique shop. Old style.
- Finish
- Dried fruits.
- Comment
- Firmer and smokier than the 15.
