Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

  • Tasting Notes by Dave Broom for Whisky Magazine

    • Nose

      Ripe with some woodsmoke, mulch/humus. Sweet, rich and deep hints of sulphur.

    • Palate

      Soft and long. Tomato puree, treacle toffee and gravy browning. Deep and intense with grip.

    • Finish

      Long, firming.

    • Comments

      Yes there's sulphur but it's not off-putting for me.

    • Rating

      8.9/10

  • Tasting Notes by Martine Nouet for Whisky Magazine

    • Nose

      Sherried. Dense. Damp warehouse or more precisely cider cellar. Burnt wood. Earthy. Moss. Fig syrup. Coffee and walnut cake.

    • Palate

      Sweet and mellow at start then the wood prevails. Huge wave of liquorice. Eau-de-vie cherries in dark chocolate.

    • Finish

      Lingering, nutty and chocolatey.

    • Comments

      A well balanced sherried whisky. Rich, complex with a beautiful finish.

    • Rating

      8.8/10

    JonNik,

    A fantastic sherry-focused whisky. To me this is the perfect balance of aromatic sherry intensity, sweetness and complexity. This is a sherry bomb ,with the only criticism I could level at it being that its not really better than the 18 year old, while being quite a bit more expensive. Then again it lacks the "bitter" tannic kick that many people find undesirable (Red wine drinkers like me may find it more than fine) and is a bit sweeter.

    Thomson,

    Simply unremarkable, to my taste. Bought two bottles at the airport with intent of sending one to a new acquaintance as an introduction to ‘good’ Scotch. Upon tasting from one bottle I decided against it as a present - really not up to scratch.

    Dave,

    Great whisky, warming sherry dram that reminds me of Christmas. In my opinion not as good as the 18yr Allardice, which is one of the finest malts on the market.

    Connoisseur,

    Wonderful whisky - a delicious, satisfying glass and although expensive, worth the outlay. Not in the least bit overoaked, contrary to what others may think.

    Lee,

    I don’t get it. 21 is clearly over-oaked in a textbook way. The nose was almost dominated by plums and cherries, only a tiny bit cocoa showed up and disappeared. Palate was not as good as popular comments either, too sour for a neat whisky. The body was disasterly thin, finish was too short for a 21 year old. Don’t really recommend for those who do not know what they like. Overrated.
