Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

this one is really mutli-layered. Starts on honey and pollen, gets then sort of smoky (barbecue), then very grassy and even a little acrid, and finally quite meaty (sausages, ham, tallow). Also notes of cabbage and asparagus. It’s moving to try such an old whisky but frankly, this time it’s not really a thrill. Too grassy a malt for me, even if it gets very almondy after a while, which I usually like

restaurant Palate

the attack is good, on walnuts and resin but then there’s something strange that happens. It gets rough, ‘green’, curiously papery and beefy at the same time... Not sure there wasn’t a flaw originally, a flaw that mingled with the rest through the years but not quite. Nails? Too bad, some aspects of this one are very nice, especially the mint and liquorice

timer Finish

long, very minty now, with the flawed parts having vanished a bit. Not unlike when you just had a handful of mint drops
