Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
sweet Vishnu, save us! Almond paste, honeydew, beeswax, pistachio halva, petroly riesling, peach and quince jellies, spearmint, old-style medicinal potions, gentian cordial (Suze), a touch of cinchona… This is just stunning, ad not far from some the early official ‘West Highland Malts’. I just hope it’ll have survived on the palate as well…
restaurant Palate
it may well have lost a bit of lustre, but it’s still kicking a bit if not screaming. Overripe apples, proper cider, paraffin and pollen, marzipan, something reminiscent of putty and even paint… It tends to fade away but I wouldn’t say it nosedives. What’s sure is that it reminds us that +/-40% vol. are not always enough to warrant the durability of a malt whisky
timer Finish
short and rather dry, but clean. It’s not exactly oaky, just a little cardboardy. Nice notes of pear and plum liqueurs, plus honeydew
