Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Gold
air Nose
A deep, earthy and vegetal peat. Some brilliant and sharp medicine and phenolics with crushed sea salt and notes of earth, hessian, sack cloth and some seashore aromas of kelp and old rope. Some fug of diesel fumes from an old puffer and a malt bin full of peated malt
restaurant Palate
Oily in texture, huge, fat, emphatic and full of peaty and farmy bluster. Coins, motor oil, sheep wool, some ink and paint and then more of this really earthy, herbal, old style peat which is a flavour which seems only to exist in these really old whiskies (I’ve found it in very old Laphroaigs, Highland Parks, Glenfarclas and many very old blends for example). It’s dry but hugely expressive, these notes of aged medicine, dried seaweed and a little touch of honey and some orange peel are all ubiquitous. Quite marvellous and utterly thrilling to taste such an old Campbeltown single malt
timer Finish
Long and full of very elegant and deft mineral, medicinal and slightly smoky touches. A little bonfire smoke and a few crushed leaves, then finally some wonderfully nervous and jittery notes of cough medicine and throat lozenges
