Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
indeed, this is beautiful. Extremely coastal with these very fragrant notes of wet rocks, chalk, gorse, seawater, grapefruit and citrus peels. But there’s also a richness and depth which belies the age. Wee notes of salted honey, aged mead, some very gentle, peppery peat smoke and even tinier hints of camphor, tar and hessian. I find it totally superb
restaurant Palate
wonderful arrival! All on tarry peat smoke, black pepper, bandages, brine, smoked olive oil, umami and green peppercorns in brine. Again this sense of maturity, richness and, well, sheer class - kind of like Talisker’s version of Lagavulin 16. Gets increasingly salty and develops this blustery, Atlantic freshness and sharp minerality
timer Finish
good length, peppery, oily, peaty, salty and with some ashes, white pepper and lemon juice
