air Nose
what a superb and complex Port Ellen! It’s more or less a blend of seawater and eucalyptus/camphor embrocation, with three drops of tar liqueur and whiffs of coal, or rather drawing charcoal. All that isn’t big, but the aromas are very persistent. Having said that, after five minutes there are more notes of hessian as well as a bag of cider apples and quite some bacon, while the tar and coal smoke have almost vanished. Very elegant, something that’s not always associated with PE within whisky circles
restaurant Palate
not much tar left, but the body’s impressive. It’s salty, I even find quite a lot of smoked salmon, then overripe apples and slightly stale lemon juice. It’s also quite camphory again, while the coastal side never stops growing. We’re almost quaffing seawater
timer Finish
long, and that’s the distillate, not the strength. Smoked salmon sprinkled with lemon juice plus a few black olives
