Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 43 by Peter Mulryan and Dave Broom.

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

Peter Mulryan

Nose
Musky vanilla and mashed linseeds.
Palate
Firm citrus fruitiness, viscous and mouth coating.
Finish
Tonic water dryness, light sherry.
Comment
Not as interesting as it used to be, this brand teetering on the brink of bland.

Dave Broom

Nose
Soft and creamy (coconut), acetone, then a hard metallic note reminiscent of aluminium cigar tubes. Peanut brittle. Has some sweetness with water, but there's some young stuff in there.
Palate
Light, soft, grassy. Vanilla, cane juice, apricot jam. With water a nagging harshness.
Finish
Dry raffia, wet reeds.
Comment
Distinctly average. Very disappointing.
