Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
hot, on kirsch, cider apples, scoria, parsnips and beets (again), raw grass, roots, barks, soot… Well this isn’t easy, but I’m sure water will pacify this Scottish brute. With water: going towards barley, fresh pears, and quite bizarrely, Glenfiddich. Some paraffin
restaurant Palate
ultra-grassy, hyper-peppery, and seemingly lethal. Extremely hot and raw – but maybe for the hipflask if you like to go fishing at 6am… With water: gets a little bitter, very sooty, with rather a lot of rubber if not soap. Having said, that, we know that’s part of this distillate’s inherent style, so it is not ‘a flaw’. It’s just a very unusual malt whisky
timer Finish
long, waxy and earthy. The aftertaste is a tad rubbery again
