A pleasant dram but maybe too much on the sweet side. Some green oak on the palate. Best served without water.

Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Malty. At first an earthy and floral note. Bracken and gorse. Fresh sap. Then sweet aromas arrive. Vanilla, barley sugar.

Palate: Smooth and sweet. Satin-like texture. Vanilla syrup with a touch of cinnamon. Reluctantly drying on a spicy note.

Finish: Quite short, nutty. A chocolate mint aftertaste.

Comment: A pleasant dram but maybe too much on the sweet side. Some green oak on the palate. Best served without water.

Score: 7.3

Chris Goodrum

Taster

Nose: Heavily oaked nose, plenty of vanilla with pineapple, banana and sweet but herbal rye-like spices. Rather sweet and buttery but the spices keep it lively.

Palate: Initially toffeed oak but the herbal rye-like spices come through fast. Drier than the nose with softer spices and a herbal intensity.

Finish: Long and herbal (camphor and camomile). A touch of honey and coffee. Sweet oak returns to counteract the drying spices. The dryness holds.

Comment: Love the intensity of this. Not to everyone’s taste, but if you love young, herbal rye whisky then it will be.

Score: 8.5
