Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

it’s a fresh nose, starting with quite some varnish and bubblegum, then bags of apples and gooseberries, plums, touches of oranges and quite a lot of barley water. Some vanilla too. I’d have rather said this is ex-bourbon rather than sherry puncheon! Or bourbon puncheons, can that exist?

restaurant Palate

malty and sweet, slightly porridgy, with ripe apples, pear drops and vanilla, then more sweet barley. Good roundness. It’s sweet and barleyish malt whisky, perfectly polished but maybe it lacks ‘wildness’ (for lack of a better word)

timer Finish

medium length, sweet and barleyish
