Comment: Not much of an impression.

Score: 6

Dominic Roskrow

Taster

Nose: Soft melon,pineapple,boiled sweets.

Palate: Clean malt delivery,crystallised fruit. Well balanced.

Finish: Quite short but more-ish.

Comment: Beautifully presented with fruit and barley working together. But a tad polite and falls just short of\rsuperstar status.

Score: 7.2
