The Janot distillery has launched this Blended, the originality of which lies in the fact that it is made from organic barley..

Let's Taste It : 

Pineapple, papaya, passion fruit, melon, combined with fairly fresh vanilla. Mint leaf. Cereals, more wheat than barley it seems. In the background, a touch of earth and whitewash. It's sweet overall. On the palate, honey, vanilla and a hint of white grapes. Cane sugar. A few spices. The finish is not unpleasant, but light, short and a little astringent. Puffed rice and cola seeds. Frankly, at this price you can buy a good daily dram, preferably in summer.

 

In Short, 

A Blended that's better than the other you usually find in supermarkets. Or so it seemed to me. 

Score : 81
