Tasting Notes
Colour
pale amber
air Nose
hey, this is very nice too! More marked by the cask, obviously (I get quite some caramel, vanilla, roasted nuts, maple syrup) but Port Ellen’s character easily shines through. Maybe peatier and wilder than the new Signatory and also a little less clean. But let’s not take chances with our nose and add quite some water now. Oh yes, that worked but differently when compared with the Signatory. It got much more on lapsang souchong tea, toasted brioche, figs and huge notes of cloves. The peat got sort of pushed away, which is quite amusing here. Whiffs of good quality arrack – yes
restaurant Palate
again a great attack, on dry sherry and big bold peat. Faint hints of sulphur/rubber this time but nothing embarrassing. Superb resin and quite some salt again, but water is needed. With water: excellent, a rather perfect assortment of candied fruits and pastries on one side and resinous and smoky ‘elements’ on the other side. Not that they don’t mingle well, quite the contrary in fact. Very good
timer Finish
long, more candied and almost honeyed now, with quite some eraly grey tea in the background. Funnily, the second part of the finish is rather grassy and earthy/leafy. Good, long development in this one, even if it hasn’t got the 1982’s almost supernatural high class. 92 points (and thanks, Konstantin) . MUSIC – Recommended listening: are you in parliamentary mood today? So let’s have the good George Clinton ’s much pillaged Atomic dog.mp3 (extended version of course) and then buy his music (please turn your bass button to 11).
