Nose

Dry and heathery. Light perfumed smoke, cumin, fudge/tablet, and with water rhubarb sweets.

Palate

Rich and soft, the high heathery phenols balanced by soft fudgey fruit. A good spread of flavours. It grows and softens then dries before ...

Finish

... honey.

Comment

All you'd expect. A little less sweet than the proprietary bottlings but none the worse for that.
