Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
ho-ho, a whole different world. A wonderful coastal maltiness, some seashells, some soot, beeswax, figs, heather honey, quinces… In truth I would have said this was an old young Highland Park, serious. With water: ooh, sweet mushrooms! And more figs, some honeydew, smoked ham, a feeling of high-strength mead … No, not distilled, I did try to distil some honey after having made some mead, that kills all aromas, and now I’m sitting with 50l raw ethanol. But digressing again…
restaurant Palate
aww, this has power and punch! More figs, salted fruits, clams, tobacco, candied lemons, raisins, more figs, smoke… Pretty brilliant. With water: would love to know which malts are in there. Very very good, firm, complex, and totally ‘un-blend’ by today’s standards
timer Finish
long, on some kind of salty fruitcake. A spoonful of miso soup in the aftertaste
