Overall
Score
7.8
Nose
Candy floss, dry spices, the smell of the woodshed. In time overripe banana, cherries, coconut and orange appear.
Palate
Very sweet start with ripe fruits, then wood starts to dominate.
Finish
The wood takes over making it a pretty dry experience.
Comment
Unbalanced, the high-impact of new cask sits uncomfortably with the distillery character.
