Taster

Nose: Assertive, nutty and malty with burnt stubble and rich bourbon oak. Dry but characterful. Good oakiness.

Palate: Lemon, vanilla with crisp red fruits and orange. Decent feel. Fills the front of the mouth then narrows and tightens. Very direct, as the nose suggests.

Finish: The memory of oak and grass. Appetising.

Comment: I like its directness, there's nothing fussy or fancy about this, just a bloody good drink.

Score: 8
