Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

starts on striking coffee notes (even coffee liqueur) that slowly transform into ‘mineral and fruity’ peat. Wet chalk, wet hay, garden bonfire, mint and apple peelings (loads). With water: a tad more on ‘smoky porridge’

restaurant Palate

punchy but less sharp than the Moon, certainly sweeter but not less peaty. Heavy peat mixed with fruit drops and faint hints of bubblegum. Very good but I always liked the regular 16yo a little better – it’s sort of more aristocratic and more complex. With water: fully balanced now. A lot of peat and more spices (pepper) and much less fruity/bubblegummy notes. Did they came solely from the alcohol?

timer Finish

long, peaty, peppery and almondy
