Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 65 by Dave Broom and Martine Nouet.

Whisky Magazine is the perfect complement to the dram in your glass. Every issue brings you fascinating articles on the art, science and romance of the 'water of life', plus page after page of tasting notes.

Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Nose
Bready with a tickle of smoke. With water a herbal note (rosemary). With water more tarry notes appear. A little plain.
Palate
Clean, malty but surprisingly light. The smoke is a mere wisp in the background. Little hollow in the centre.
Finish
Dies a quick and painless death.
Comment
Needs water to open the nose, but the palate is rather simple.

Martine Nouet

Nose
Outdoor fragrances. Garrigue herbs (thyme, savory). Earthy with a floral touch (wet forest ground after a summer shower). A hint of curry. Adistant tar note.
Palate
Sweet, round, syrupy. Toffee, liquorice. A peated note. Oak is well integrated.
Finish
Dancing on tastebuds. Spicy. Thyme comes back.
Comment
An interesting dram. Perfumy, dense on the palate though so sweet at first. Satisfying.
