Tasting Notes
Martine Nouet (8,25)
Nose: Summery, light and fragrant. Grassy. Freshly cut lawn, green oak. Lemon grass. Herbal tea. Lemon sherbet. Reminds me of a chartreuse.
Palate: Unctuous, sweet. A slight watery gap at midpalate. The palate is true to the nose. The same herbal notes are delivered. Wild chervil, dill.
Finish: Sweet, minty with a spicy dryness.
Comment: A charming summery dram. The perfect herbal tea to savour while gazing at the moonlit sky.
Dave Broom (7,0)
Nose: Edgy and young. Minty (toothpaste) flaming orange oils. A little stony.
Palate: Clean and floral with a soft apricot like richness in the centre. Good length. More to it than the nose suggests.
Finish: Quick, biscuity oak.
Comment: More about potential. For me this is too young and needs time to come together.
Jim Murray geeft deze whisky in de Whisky Bible 2009 89/100 punten.
Nose: (22) Subtle vanilla; clean, grassy barley - for those into Speyside style malts
Taste: (23) mouth-watering and wonderful display of barley offering a golden syrup counter to the drier oaks
Finish: (22) more strands of syrup but never over the top as te vailla pods crank up the intensity
Balance: (22)a beautifully improved, charismatic malt displaying a voluptuousness and understanding between clean barley and drier oak that had been previously lacking. Not anything like so fruity and a very charming experience.
Op basis hier van lijkt het me een aardige whisky. Wat is jullie ervaring?

Lokkertje? Hij zegt: "Maar... niet getreurd. Ik zou hem toch niet kopen als ik jou was!" Haha, goede verkoper! Wel eerlijk natuurlijk
