Member Ratings and Notes

Andy

Nose: Faint, solventy and floral with imagination or dog's nose.

Palate: Simple and solvently with a distant caramel, rather like a Glenmorangie 10 or a decent blend in some ways. There's just no character to it. It's like talking to a mannequien... not offensive, but, meh.

Chris

N: Slightly butyric, buttery, fresh oak.
P: Light and oaky, slightly floral.
F: Smokey, shows it's young age a bit in the finish, a long burn.
Not a bad start, but needs a few more years.
